Synopsis

Strange and bewitching, Planet [wanderer] is the intriguing result of a collaboration between renowned choreographer Damien Jalet – a collaborator of Madonna, Thom Yorke, and Marina Abramović, among others – and Japanese visual artist and scenographer Kohei Nawa.

Both have a fascination for transforming shapes in space. In this dreamlike piece, they confront the bodies of eight dancers with shifting materials and textures, creating a visceral meditation on the bond between people and planet. Their bodies move back and forth like reeds, in a fragile balance between power and vulnerability, harmony and survival, destruction and evolution.

This production is part of Singapore International Festival of Arts 2026. For more information and the full festival line-up, visit sifa.sg.
