DEVOURER

One body, a bunch of black balls, a clear task and countless greed. A dance performance inspired by the principles of the clown figure and black hole theory. DEVOURER exists only to have. In a determined effort to take everything for its own, it absorbs light, inhales space and materializes time. Its transformation manifests gradually. A body of greed caught in action. How can the “self” be maximized? Singularity. It’s a hypothetical point. “I am a star, I shine like a supernova…or have I become a black hole?”
