Essential at KMSKA

This dance film was made possible through the collaboration between Radio Klara, the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp (KMSKA), Taichi Sakai + Shane Urton representing Opera Ballet Vlaanderen. 

Premiered 14.12.2020 exclusively on Radio Klara's app.

​

Here, the dancer could be you.  Wondering the halls of KMSKA in search for what is missing. The dancer's thoughts keep them from reaching potentially new spaces until waves of non-verbal feelings take over. In Essential at KMSKA you jump between the historic halls to the new modern wings of the museum.
