Fine5 Dance Theatre and Giorgi Aleksidze Tbilisi Contemporary Ballet shared evening in two parts

“Right Behind Your Eyes” is a new work by Tiina Ollesk and Renee Nõmmik in which the visible is intertwined with the invisible in the language of dance and in an environment that stimulates the senses. Inspired by Doris Kareva’s adult fairy tale “The Blue Stone” and Carl Gustav Jung’s theory of synchronicity, the play examines how we carry the inexplicable longing for something greater in the background of everyday life. There are stories difficult to explain, and the passage is sometimes where it should not be according to any hypotheses. There are memories that are so vivid that you doubt them…
The production brings together a special composition: three dancers from Vivo Center in Rome and three from Fine5 Dance Theatre, who have dealt with these topics during the creative process lasting several months and are now ready to bring it to the audience.

Fine5 Dance Theatre is lead by choreographers Tiina Ollesk and Renee Nõmmik. The mission of Fine5 Dance Theater is to develop and expand Estonian contemporary dance art, to provide professional choreographers and dancers with a work and development environment and creative processes based on the specifics of dance art, and to present their own creations in Estonia and abroad. Our statement is sustainable creative activity – lifelong learning in dance, care and sharing in local community.

The contemporary ballet “Metamorphoses” is based on Ovid’s poem “Metamorphoses or Transformations”, which is interesting precisely due to the fact that each myth ends in a transformation. The poem features a world that is based on constant change. The basis of the choreographic idea is to express fantasy and is aimed at returning to the myth, animating human nature, expressing people’s physical, internal and external state, reconnecting them with their psyche, understanding it and, by creating sometimes plastic and sometimes schematic figures, expressing the ideas, forms and forces which transform people and construct their souls.

Giorgi Aleksidze Tbilisi Contemporary Ballet was created in 2016 and its repertoire mainly consists of contemporary one-act productions by Mariam Aleksidze. The choreographer believes that the troupe’s artistic image will not develop if they do not have their own original and unique productions. Giorgi Aleksidze Tbilisi Contemporary Ballet has made a significant contribution to the development and promotion of contemporary choreography and dance in Georgia.
