NOOR

Performance by Tamar Borer and Tom Klein, 2020

Hateyva, Jaffa

45 minutes

NOOR is a journey to seek a primal breath, and the essence of movement and sound within it.
In the midst of a dark abyss, three disguised figures dance in an illusory world of hybrid creatures. They shed cover after cover, turning the skin of things inside out, gradually revealing their true nature.

“Noor,” “light” in Arabic, is derived from “Dinur,” the river of fire depicted in the vision of the prophet Ezekiel, Book of Ezekiel. In 2021, a year that provokes anxiety and chaos, NOOR offers a reminder of the human need to elevate beyond fear, to carry and to care for each other.
