Human life, like all life forms on the planet, is driven by the yoke of growth-growth-development. The clear sufferer of this process is the space around him, which he subordinates to his own domination and needs at the cost of constant conquest. We desire more, better, bigger, more lovable, and in doing so we devour our space, our time, our life.

The world of Madi is a small planet with a unique atmosphere, where the introspective contemplation of Buddhism and the professionalism of dynamic warriors are symbiotic. He works with a distinctive mood-setting, high-tech music that can be received at different levels. Yet the effect is powerful and expressive.
The performers devour the space around them, while the space almost chokes them, and this two-way movement creates a dynamic of its own, but also transcends the stage and engulfs the audience.
