The Story of 12
Korean-English Exchange Research & Performance
Traditional Korean performance accompanied by Scottish Aerial Dance. A mid-scale theatrical cross-art performance in the form of an omniverse will be presented fantastically with projection lights. It can be said that the aerial dance teams ‘All or Nothing’ and ‘MARO’ have shown the art of limiting on the border of life and death. After holding two cooperative studies in Jeju and Edinburgh, UK, in 2019, they explored the circular traces of life and the joys and sorrows of life with twelve tales, getting the idea that there are various stories related to the number 12 in world myths – a beautiful journey towards the complete number 12 by drifting between anxiety and trust.
