Description:
The new choreographic work 'Erroneous Encounters' directed, choreographed and written by the Cypriot creator Panayiotis Tofi is an experimental movement-based journey accompanied by the live composition of electronic music and poetic text. Four performers and a music composer share the stage in a course of negotiation with the post-traumatic as autoimmune, dysfunction, distance and the multiple symbolisms of emptiness. The work is a continuation of the creator's research in both movement vocabulary and composition, with which he focuses on topics of emptiness and concealment, as well as the loss of empathy and autonomy as a characteristic of contemporary reality.
