The world was a paradise
In this paradise wowen were rulling

Pertunjukkan Tari Kontemporer Kolaborasi Koreografer
Gerard Masterd and Boi G. Sakti

Kali ini Gerard Mosterd dan Boy G. Sakti menampilkan tari kontemporernya yang berjudul Bundo Kanduang/The Paradise. Bundo Kanduang terilhami dari kebudayaan Sumatera Barat yang memiliki gerakan tari penuh dengan kekuatan dan kedamaian. Kemudian mereka memadupadankan dengan gerakan-gerakan manusia, flora dan fauna. Hasil koreografi Gerard Mosterd diilhami oleh ingatan-ingatan akan dirinya yang terlahir kembali yang dipertunjukan dengan gerakan-gerakan horizontal dan vertical. Gerakan ini menandakan hilangnya pengaruh ibu di dalam hidupnya.

This time Gerard Mosterd and Boi G. Sakti present a contemporary dance entitled Bundo Kanduang/The Paradise. Bundo Kanduang is inspired by the West Sumatra which has the dance movement that is powerful and peaceful. Then they integrate it with the movements of man, flora and fauna. The choreography of Gerard Mosterd is inspired by his memories of his own rebirth that is shown with the horizontal and vertical movements. This movement indicates the loss of his mother’s influence in his life.
But Boi G. Sakti (Indonesian) explores the natural emotions to indicate the influence of nature on its surroundings. Boi shows his choreography by horizontal movement as the realization of the earth elements that has a power symbol.
