IN SHORT: In That Which Is Immeasurable, an endless struggle unfolds, embodied by an untameable creature in a floral dress. Through the pounding rhythms of the Dahul and a body in constant survival mode, immortality is made tangible.

Accompanied by the Dahul. The drum that makes the ground move. Collectively pounding the ground, letting it be heard that it was there, is there and will always be there. Representing immortality. She who represents existence.

We celebrate, we fight, we allow ourselves to be carried away and held back. We rise up, we pass on, we are conscious, unconscious, while always facing and keeping danger in sight. The oppressed, wrapped in a body. What if you are exterminated, executed and oppressed every day? What does something that is always in survival mode look like?

Experience the power of survival and expression in "The Untamable Creature in a Flowered Dress" / "That which is untamable" by Melisa Diktaş. An immersive performance that embodies the essence of struggle, survival and resilience wrapped in the rhythms of Kurdish movement language.
