Dark Matters is a solo performance exploring something that cannot be seen, but still may exist. It is a wet dream of a shapeless creature floating in a shoreless sea and a small, ephemeral and lost homo sapiens secretly wishing for an eternal disco. How did it all turn out like this? Without providing an answer something whispers back, squirming in space and amongst endless karaoke tickets, impatiently waiting to appear.
Dark Matters on the room that was always in the house without anyone finding it yet.It is lonely. Accepting loneliness is the first step in the process of being found.
