KINTSUGI is a clownesque, poetic, and raw performance about loss, grief, and comfort. A journey from hope to despair, to sadness to anger, to the realization that losing someone never leaves you, and that that is okay. With a subtle, disarming, and visual approach, shape is given to a theme that connects us all.
There is a man.
There is a door.
There is hope.
The man waits. And waits. Together we wait. He does his best to play away the emptiness, but it becomes increasingly clear how this is all going to end...
In KINTSUGI, hardly any words are spoken – and that is not necessary. The image predominates, the humor breaks the tension, and the comfort is just around the corner. A performance that touches without crushing. Grief-food that does not sit heavily on the stomach, but digests gently.
