Doldrums

Direction/ composition/ choreograph/ performance by MIZUKI Taka

Description

The doldrums mean windless area that occur near the equator and the psychological stagnation of humans. In the days when there were no engines yet, it was a dead zone there. Ships couldn’t get propulsion, time passed, and the food ran out. Focusing on the impulses and emptiness in human mind and the flow of time related to life through breathing in silent space and movement driven by will.

<Stuck in windless sea.
(The sun rises… sets…)
Accumulation accidental and incoherence actions compose most of humanity.
Today, our times can go on.
What should value in this world?
Or rather let’s try not to proceed?
