Master craftsmanship on stage? It sounds strange and fascinating at the same time: while a ceramist and a knot artist perform their work on stage, an enchanting dance symbolizing their craft is presented in the background - a rare opportunity to experience traditional Korean crafts and dance on stage.
Thinking Hands: Dance of Earth and Thread was produced and premiered by the National Intangible Heritage Center (NIHC) in 2021. The work was inspired by Richard Sennett's book The Craftsman. The Berlin performance of Thinking Hands is a tribute to the 140th anniversary year of the two countries' friendly relations since 1882 - and an expression of hope that these relations will continue to deepen.
