Choreography by Matthew William Robinson
BORDER, reflects on the lines we draw between us, that divide us and sustain us. Like rope binding and fraying, bodies combine and fracture, revealing an abyss of repetitive memories and ritual. BORDER explores a return to tradition in response to decay, a search for definition guided by a fear of the future.
BORDER is commissioned by Festivals Malta as part of Notte Bianca 2025.

BORDER/NATION
A choreographic diptych created by ŻfinMalta Artistic Director Matthew William Robinson. How do we confront the end? BORDER/NATION considers our response to the crumbling systems that surround us, and our human response to death and decay. Is our collective grief shaping our collective future? Each work draws together an international team of artists, working across mediums and forms. Expect a hyper-physical experience that pulls to the extremes. An emotional journey divided in two, that will unfold over the season.
