The dance performance "Kur krantas" is a modern look at the mythology of the Balts. This work contextualizes Lithuanian folklore against the background of today's human experiences and looks at the relationship between two worlds: material, based on logic, and spiritual, created by faith and imagination.
The starting point of the play is the legend of Jūratė and Kastytis. Choreographer Lukas Karvelis and dancer Dominyka Markevičiūtė offer a new interpretation of her through the story of Jūrate. They explore the transformation of the solitary individual in the balance between freedom and constraint, the limitations of the body and the fluidity of the imagination."Kur krantas" is a transformative journey of movement from a point to a space without beginning and end, where movement gradually becomes virtuosic and complex. The dancer finds herself confronted with the rules dictated by her own body and space. Complex, meditative and water-like movements create an allusion to a deity chained at the bottom of the sea, trying to find balance, his axis and liberation.
