MOHAMED TOUKABRI
The Power (of) The Fragile
© Christian Tandberg
After being apart for several years, son and mother reunite again on stage. The Power (of) The Fragile is a meeting of two worlds, two bodies, two minds. Latifa always dreamt of being a dancer, Mohamed made it his profession. The borders of their bodies blur, making it hard to decipher where one ends and the other starts. Their lives and dreams start to merge, and only time claims its space between mother and son.
The Power (of) The Fragile is a collection of images and reflections on what the relationship between mother and son can look like and what it means to be home and go away. It is a performance about movement, of bodies and people, about weight and what it means to carry weight, about being together and apart. It is a tender portrait of a close relationship and a pamphlet for our right to go wherever we want.
