Description

Shattered Ground draws material and inspiration from the mythical figure of Persephone, reimagined to be reaching an uncertain present and heading towards a “shattered” future. Being a suspended soul in an Odyssean wander, she descends into the present moment tasked to rebuild it anew. Two selves, the light and the darkness, reflect Persephone’s division between the living realm and the underworld.  A passing from one place and time to another that nurtures change and transformation.

Choreographer and Performer Athanasia Kanellopoulou choreographs a hybrid music performance in collaboration with Composer and Pianist Konstantina Polychronopoulou and Soprano Peny Deligianni. Three women compose a scenic universe where dance, live music, and various soundscapes, all converse on stage, floating between the mythical and the real, the earthy and the supernatural, and aspiring to – potentially – redefine the identity of modern humanity.
