Dancer Olli Lautiola, previously seen on stage with Pori Dance Company, returns to the group for the first time as a choreographer.
Lautiola’s new premiere sumua / farewell explores the feeling of haziness and the state of being in transition. The work is a fading, forgetting, unknowing, yearning, clear, and slowly vanishing journey into ourselves.
sumua / farewell contemplates whether forgetting can be a liberating experience and a tribute to change.
