Callais a raw Butoh performance inspired by the stillness and sculptural purity of the calla lily, exploring the quiet tension between fragility and resilience found in nature and the human body. Through slow, deliberate movement and breath, the piece unfolds as a living sculpture, revealing the hidden stories we carry of grief, memory, and transformation while embodying the flower’s graceful defiance against time. It is an invitation to witness the body as a flower opening and closing, echoing the quiet strength and delicate survival of the calla lily in a world that demands constant bloom.
