In Memory of a Future Eruption, Helge Letonja, together with the ensemble Of Curious Nature, creates shifting social images that constantly reform. From the cracks in the rock, from the spaces in between, fragments of memories emerge—figurative and collective images of human existence are unearthed, speaking of transitions like birth, migration, and new beginnings, before fading away once more.

With his distinctive dance language, Letonja crafts a poetic in-between world: blurred images meet biographical upheavals; the past influences the present and reshapes the future.

“His (Helge Letonja’s) eleven dancers leaped and whirled as if in a state of constant metamorphosis. Above all, they evoked timeless images of human existence.” (Remscheider Generalanzeiger, Daniel Diekhans)
