Void Amongst Humans

Jarek Cemerek

The dance duet by Helena Arenbergerová and Jarek Cemerek leads audiences through many different atmospheres, each of which reflects human feelings in a large anonymous world. No matter how technologies bring us a great deal of benefit in the present society, we still feel lonely in our lives, lost in the crowd. In his latest work, the choreographer Jarek Cemerek investigates the impact of an anonymous background on the psyche of an individual.

“A truly impressive theatre experience that takes one to the moment where life situations collide with destiny.” (Marcela Benoniová, Novinky.cz, 23. 6. 2010)

"The choreography is very demanding as far as movement goes: both of the dancers, Helena and Jarek, however, managed to meet the demands and they are both impressive in the piece. Their roles fit them very well. Between each individual motion there is a slight sparkle: the spectators are eager to know what is coming next. The performers managed to intrigue, to go deeply under the skins of European dance observers." Lucie Břinková, Taneční aktuality, 21. 6. 2010
