The road from incarceration to celebrating freedom
Beyond the Triangle is a multidisciplinary performance inspired by the Iranian Women’s Liberation movement. This performance (still in development) explores the complexity of freedom and immeasurable human resilience in the face of oppression. Through live music, dance and poetry, Sanamika paints a physical portrait of what liberation can mean in all its glory. Original compositions, a blending of Persian musical traditions with contemporary elements, improvisation, and electronics are interwoven with a dancer’s movements.
Beyond the Triangle tells the story from prison to celebrating freedom through the words of women poets, reflecting their struggles for self-expression and social change across generations.
Their voices awaken a yearning for freedom that can be found deep within all of us.
Sneak preview performances were presented at Explore the North Festival 2024 and Jonge Harten Festival in Groningen.
