Until the tongue speaks
Experimental dance performance
For centuries, women have been defined by societal roles imposed by men, their desires and bodies controlled.
The performance depicts a woman trapped in routine and fear, expressing her pain through dance. In the end, she finds her voice, symbolizing rebirth, transformation, and a deeper connection with the world
