Saudade


Saudade is an experimental contemporary solo, built on a principle of questioning and contemplation. Performance explores the continuous, intimate flow of questions that move through both the performer and the audience:How does it feel to sit? What will be my next thought? Can I be slower? In such way of development, the piece becomes a living dialogue between inner reflection and external presence, creating a shared space of awareness and quiet longing — Polina Skarga


Almost Friday


A choreographic work exploring the rhythms of modern life. Through movement, the artist embodies various states of existence—from mundane routine to bursts of intense emotion. The piece observes the cyclical nature of our lives, where shifting moods, anticipation, moments of uplift, and rest combine into a universally recognizable image. The dance serves as a metaphor for the life patterns that connect us all, contemplating how personal experiences of time become part of our shared human journey. It is an invitation for the audience to pause and listen to the rhythm in which we live. — Maksim Kuznetsov
