DESCRIPTION OF PIECE

KAIROS Dance Theater’s husk/vessel, created in collaboration with legendary choreographer Paula Josa-Jones, is a powerful dance-theater work that explores the body as both a vessel of memory and a husk shaped by time, resilience, and loss. Developed entirely during the COVID-19 pandemic, the piece captures the raw physicality and emotional intensity of a world in flux. Through haunting imagery and dynamic choreography, husk/vessel navigates the tension between strength and fragility, presence and impermanence. A meditation on transformation, it invites audiences into a visceral, immersive experience where movement becomes an act of both survival and surrender.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
​​

KAIROS Dance Theater creates socially engaged, movement-based performances that fuse bold storytelling, intense physicality, rich imagery, and multimedia to illuminate urgent societal themes. We position art as a vital force for cultural transformation and collective reckoning, blending activism and artistry to spark critical conversations. Committed to accessibility, inclusion, and cross-cultural exchange, KAIROS brings diverse voices to the stage and invites audiences into transformative, thought-provoking experiences. We envision a world where dance inspires empathy, healing, and action—using the body’s power to bridge divides and drive change.
