The Death of Hundun

Inspired by Zhuangzi’s parable of Hundun, this physically charged solo performance follows a woman living with depression as she sets out on seven journeys to escape pain. Each attempt seems to offer hope, yet leaves her more broken, as the things she once believed in slowly fall apart. Blending intense physical theatre with an emotional monologue, the piece becomes a raw encounter with herself. Pushed to the edge of death, she begins to question the need to understand and control everything, and finally finds a way to coexist with her pain.
