"Krakatoa: Boom, Homecoming, Cycle Chaos" is a result of a collective creation involving residency artists and local communities in an artistic research focused on ecological interaction and the body. This work acts as an alchemical kitchen, where the vibrations of Krakatoa, with all its complexity, are transformed into artistic forms that channel cosmic rhythms and tensions. Using the metaphor of cooking in a magma kitchen, the piece explores and nurtures eco-empathetic relationships, opening space for relational bodies to reveal new forms and sensations as a renewal of sensibilities. As a manifestation of a community of sense, this performance rejects rigid representations and instead delves into the potential of shapelessness, voids, and vulnerability to create an experience that touches the essence of coexistence within the ecological network. At its core, the work aims to transcend conventional representations of the body (dance), celebrating diversity through vibrations that connect humans and non-human entities in a cycle of resonance.
