Are you listening?

Summer Dance Festival 2026
Limassol Municipal Garden @neakinisi_cyprus

A three hour durational score based work questioning why silence generates discomfort and how the body seeks refuge in constant activity. Silence is often avoided, interrupted, or filled, while noise becomes a protective mechanism – a way to escape exposure, vulnerability, and awkwardness.

The work approaches silence as an active condition; a conscious decision that we take when feeling calm and at ease, against the constant urge to fill space with words when we feel awkward and out of place. The performers navigate between physical movement that embodies noise and silence. Noise is explored through speed, repetition, tension and exhaustion, while silence emerges through stillness, our weight and gravity dictating our movement, and prolonged pauses. A key point of focus will be the transitions between these states: the resistance to stop speaking when you know you should, the fear of remaining silent in a setting where you are expected to speak; and moments where there is a mismatch between the degree of speech and silence.

FASHION SENSE : a series

Workshop based studio sessions exploring the symbiotic relationship between fashion and movement.

Introducing our first collaborator @nozomi_yamanami

Garment 1: Cut-out Trench Coat
“A bold back cut-out is developed from the idea of a flip book, capturing movement frame by frame. Designed to encourage layering and interaction.”

Garment 2: Paged Motion Half Pants
“Layered panels inspired by turning pages translate movement into segments, unfolding rhythmically with each motion.” by @thmskato
