Animated by the force of love and its transformative potential in times of crisis, "Clay" cultivates a poetic, sensuous approach to movement. Through a choreographic language attuned to space and its many presences - visible, ghostly, and more-than-human - the work explores vulnerability, resilience, and eroticism. The body and clay serve as parallel vessels of memory and transformation: soft, fragile, and shaped by touch and time.

The performance exposes our deep, material, and sensual relationship with the body of the Earth. It is a celebration of life - an attempt to come closer to the mystery at the heart of our earthly existence. Even amid ruins, dance remains.

Set to a soundscape by Antonina Nowacka (from the album "Lamunan") and accompanied by an extravagant costume and set design by Marta Szypulska, presented in Venice as the world premiere, the piece also marks the inaugural production of Monika Błaszczak’s newly founded dance company, Monika’s Dance World.

Movement Theatre

182, D. Agmasheneblis Ave., Tbilisi

The history of "Movement Theater" is an integral part of the life of its founder, Kakha Bakuradze. Before opening the theater in Georgia, Kakha Bakuradze worked in Western Europe and returned to Georgia in 2000 after many years of practice. At the theater institute, he gave pantomime lessons to future actors. In 2001, the first performance "Richard the Third" was staged together with the students of the Theater School, which was evaluated as the best experiment of the year. It was here that a band of students saw Kakha Bakuradze's possibility of establishing his own theater and began his journey in the world of movement. Kakha Bakuradze's troupe started the first public performances in the streets. The Movement Theatre was in constant motion and changed rehearsal spaces whenever possible, until the completion of the construction of its own theater (2013), which the artistic director and the cast built with their own hands. Since then, creative activities, which do not mean only theatrical performances, have not stopped in this building for a single day. A lot of creative evenings were held in the Kakha Bakuradze Movement Theater and their selection is based on only one criterion - the creativity must be original.
