Set against the backdrop of global unrest, Proses on neither here nor there is a meditation on how we live, what we leave behind and the legacy we shape. It contemplates the fragility of human life and the quiet strength found in its impermanence. Through the body and the language of dance, the work offers a meditative space to engage with notions of mortality with reflection and curiosity. It embraces themes of decay, transformation and renewal, inviting people to consider death not as an end, but as a vital part of existence, as a cycle within the force of nature.
