The transformation of the world and the ensuing fundamental question of what advantages we have as human beings amid an ongoing process of evolution, provide the starting point and motivation for the interdisciplinary project Persona. The two dancers explore the phenomenon of symbiosis and produce a dance performance in collaboration with their team in which two worlds meld into a single one. The storyline of Ingmar Bergman’s film Persona of 1966 creates a strong artistic reference for the choreographic work.
