Torua by Movement of the Human is a captivating interdisciplinary performance that weaves contemporary dance, sound, and Māori cultural narratives into a profound exploration of duality and connection. Drawing its name from the Māori word for “two strands,” Torua delves into the tension and harmony between contrasting forces—modern and traditional, human and natural, tangible and spiritual. With an evocative soundscape and powerful choreography, the work invites audiences on a journey through themes of identity, ancestry, and the interplay of light and shadow in the human experience.
