Together Alone

How to cope with the heavy feeling of loneliness? How to explain it? And why is it sometimes strongest when we are surrounded by people? Even when we are together, in the end we are each on our own in life.Sometimes it's the easier way. Being together requires openness to ideas and opinions, a willingness to listen and make compromises.What will unexpected meetings and crossing fates bring? And does physical closeness mean emotional closeness? The triptych is a reflection of the author's chance encounters with various artists during two years in Prague, where she fled before the war. Part II. –⁠ Invisible Traces Fingerprints, a tangle of inconspicuous lines, hiding our uniqueness and genetic heritage. Invisible traces, unconsciously left in our surroundings, on things and people. We are covered by them too. Others have left them on us, on the surface, but also inside, as fleeting evidence of an experienced closeness. We create these invisible connections every day; we are the bearers of them, either unwittingly or by our own will. Czech performers Jitka Čechová, Katy Jabůrková, Žaneta Musilová and Lukas Bliss Blaha participated in the creation of the trio, inspired by the shape of the "barre" object by graduates of the Academy of Fine Arts, which can evoke, for example, a fingerprint. Part III. –⁠ Paradoxical Bodies In the realm of the human body's intricate essence,adrenaline and endorphins take center stage, harmonizing to define our physiological and emotional crescendos. They are the protagonists of an ongoing drama within us, where the balance and interplay between these two hormones are essential. The inspiration for “Paradoxical Bodies” was the original duet “Endless Talks” with Ladji Kone (BF), where Yana decided to take the feminine principle beyond the energy of man and woman, connecting two different cultures. The new duet with Nika Horiacha portrays two completely different characters and experiences: endorphin and adrenaline. Even though the two women are in harmony, they can be so different.
