Cardinal Points

Psychedelic Epos with elements of Mysticism and Shamanism

 

The production is based on many years of research in various fields of culture and science, psychology, ethnography, religious philosophy and alternative doctrines and cults.

The show is authentic: it carries the torch for Russian avant-garde and futurism being connected to shaman traditions, archaism and Russian roots.

This experimental production of trans performance exists because of the possibility of direct sharing of cutting-edge ideas related to the future and survival of mankind as a species. Ideas related to morality, ethics and Weltanschauung (ideology). It urges us to abandon ruinous models of human relationships.

 

 

The words in the play are shaman and ritual songs. Artefacts, actions and movements are protected by forces of spirits harking back to specific traditions.
The performance functions as an art trans ritual show. The project is expected to change and develop, to become more involved depending on current circumstances, place and time of year, production givens and overall creative potential.
