The “Czując” performance is pleasant like a summer breeze. Invigorating like a sea wave to bare feet. Subtly, like only dance can, it presents the topic of going through feelings that children and adults experience in everyday life. It reminds us that all kinds of feelings help us be friends to ourselves and experience closeness to others. The poetics of the performance is based on structural improvisation, the use of words coming from the sensations of the body and imagination, as well as music and vocalise. The performance was produced thanks to a grant of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, as well as cooperation with the Kraków Choreographic Centre – the Nowa Huta Cultural Centre. The title of the performance was inspired by Agnieszka Jucewicz’s book, “Czując”.
