INDEX

’’THE NET of PAS DE DEUX’’ is a duet exploring the tension between life and death.
A man and a woman; two poles, two worlds, are balancing in a synthesis of captivating and explosive movements on the surface of an elevated net;
itself a huge art installation, altering the performance by
surrounding the space using projected light, sound and live video.
They are struggling between being a human being and an animal,
being selfdestructive and divine, sacred and sinful.
Guided by their desire, and driven in a constant creation of many little lives and deaths of oneself, they are willing to go into an adventure for the extreme, connecting the real image with the virtual image of our thoughts.
