“Where is the Rabbit?” is a collaboration between choreographer Sung Im Her and choreographer Grace Ellen Barkey (Needcompany, BE) in which Sung Im Her confronts her own work, which focuses on the body, distortion, repetitiveness and femininity, with that of Barkey, in order to research the longing for connection between metaphysical characters and reality (in Wonderland).
Their journey began by reviewing 30 years of Barkey’s work, including “This door is too small (for a bear)”, “25 moves”, “Probabilities of Independent Events”, “Chunking”, “The Porcelain Project”, “Mush-Room”, “Odd but True”, “Night / Malam”, and “FOREVER”, and then reinterpreting, dismantling, and reconstructing her work.
“Where is the Rabbit?” explores a return to childhood innocence through rabbits. It is a journey to the surreal world in a latent comparison. Through this work, Sung Im Her aims to revisit the world that we have lost a long time ago, to understand what makes us fearful and anxious, and therefore very human.
