“Susanna Leinonen is the great surpriser of our modern dance. Just when we have learned to recognise her as a contemporary dance choreographer, she brings her history in the world of ballet to the stage. — The result is overwhelmingly decorative yet absolutely original modern ballet.”
– Helsingin Sanomat (2002)
The Choreography deals with four different themes that intertwine with one another, revealing unconscious associations, thoughts and emotions. The starting points for the movement are the mysteriousness of moments and the creations of illusions: the movement itself is physical, kaleidoscopic and full of nuances.
