About the performance

Flotsam and jetsam are originally nautical terms for objects, debris, and wreckage that ships have discarded at sea for various reasons. Flotsam refers to objects that a ship accidentally lost during its voyage, while jetsam refers to items that the crew deliberately threw overboard in order to lighten the vessel in an emergency situation.

We can lose many things, and many things have been lost: a pen, a watch, your first milk teeth, enthusiasm for work, friends from elementary school, even me, I too can be lost, as well as memories of my first visit to McDonald's, song lyrics, or even GPS navigation. Other things, on the other hand, cannot be discarded, even if they weigh us down and drag us to the bottom. What will I find there?

Two men, or two boys; lost, drifting in a sea of balls. Endless possibilities beyond the horizon. Hightide and lowtide. A trans-continental flight. A new country. Longing for the ocean. Fear of heights. Fear of depths. A sister who is irrelevant in all of this. And then the thing.

A physical exploration of friendship / juggling with words and relationships.

I have lost nothing, thus not finding anything.

At sea, we can get lost, or just drift aimlessly.
