Ken | כן

“Ken | כן” is a full-length interdisciplinary solo dance piece that deals with a reality of chaos and the sovereignty for alternatives of existence raising from it. Corresponding with the current hyper conflicted reality, Goshen engages with events of extreme disruption, on a personal, national, international and global level. Action by action she learns the physicality of the forces’ collision of ruins and survivability. She welcomes chaos as a pattern of evolution rather than repetition. Can History, for once, NOT repeat itself?
