The performance is inspired by the life and work of Aldona Gustas (born 1932), a Lithuanian poet and artist living in Berlin.
"Each line is a love connection between thought and hand", she believes. The artworks appear in a kind of trance state. Closing her eyes in front of a piece of paper as if guided by the hand of God, the artist draws a line. This line connects Gustas' subconscious with the movement she is performing, with the paper, like two edges of a freshly made wound. The drawing is born per primam intentionem, revealing her exceptional talent.
This event is part of the „Kaunas – European Capital of Culture 2022“ program.
Aura Dance Theatre
Aura Dance Theatre is the first contemporary dance theatre in Lithuania, dating back to the modern dance studio founded by Birutė Letukaitė in 1980, which grew into the Kaunas Dance Theatre in 1995. In 2011, it became an international dance company, presenting performances on every continent and winning numerous awards.
In 1989, the theatre welcomed the first international modern dance festival in Lithuania held in Kaunas.
