Caterpillar
“Caterpillar is a performance that explores the art of passing time in a lifeless world, drawing inspiration from the tragedies of Hiroshima, Beslan, and Phuket.
Following a disaster, five survivors find themselves in a desolate landscape, unaware of the cataclysm that occurred. Without warning, everything and everyone have vanished. In the ruins, they attempt to communicate and heal their wounds. Caterpillar delves into the human experience under extreme conditions, depicting the struggle for survival and the longing for connection. The performance features live music, sitar playing, a rubber dinghy in a sea of asphalt, a wired fence with tactile engagement, a Philippine children’s song, and river dance at New Year’s speed!
