Mirage / سراب

Live interactive performance

2019, 2022

This performance is based on the Kuwaiti children’s game: “Baar” desert, and “Bahar” sea. The game invites the shifting of body postures in response to the changes of the landscape upon announcement. The work explores Kuwaiti womens’ folkloric rituals to cope with grief/longing, language, music, poetry and natural elements, understanding of play and abandon while interacting with the audience.
