"Quiet"
A new production by Israeli choreographer Arkadi Zaides
Co-Produced by: Arts Station Foundation/ Stary Browar Nowy Taniec, Poznan, Poland.
The starting point of Zaides’s new creation is the wish to create a meeting between artist from both the Arab and the Jewish sectors in Israel. The performance seeks to create an honest and real dialogue and deeply investigate the local reality and the relationship between the two populations living within it.
The communication between the two communities is in a crucial point, due to the ongoing conflict in the region. The project attempts to challenge the artistic meeting by asking sincere questions, regarding the state of mind of the participants in relation to the present reality, as well trying to understand which personal dreams and wishes are arising from this complex situation.
The work contains four participants: two of which are Palestinians living within the borders of Israel and two are Israelis; The actor and rap singer Muhammad Mugrabi, the actor Rabia Khuri, the dancer Ofir Yudilevich and the choreographer and dancer Arkadi Zaides. (CVs are below).
The creative process is inspired by the existing differences between the participant’s backgrounds and realities. The differences will become the main source of exploration. Movement, texts, rap singing, marshal arts, music and set design will be merged into a surrealistic environment, which contains aggression, compassion, confusion and dreamlike atmosphere.
