In IGNIS (Latin for fire), we plunge into a world of deep arousal.

In this dance creation for Zfin Malta, we rely on the relationship of cause and response and sets out to ignite deep energies and channel profound emotions.

We burn inside, we explode.

Let us radiate in our exquisite physical condition in space.

We do not want to hide; we want to amplify.

Let it flare up, let it spark!

Is it a poisonous inner impulse or the path to love and salvation?

Let us be kind.

In this shout out, IGNIS reveals itself as a transformative power. The focus is on the emergence of forces, on the flow of energies that cannot be directed, and on channelling them into a roadmap for liberation .
