8pm AIR

Tabula Rasa


Divadlo ARCHA / in Czech with English subtitles / 50 min


What can a single breath mean? A fluttering scarf on a mountain peak. A cloud of steam. The smell of the ocean. Everything that flows, billows, spreads or smoulders is carried by or wafts through the air. In Czech, the word "drak" means both dragon and kite. There are many different types of dragons/kites. Heavenly dragons are servants of the gods and guardians of their land. Earth dragons live in the seas and rivers. Spirit Dragons are protectors of peasants, they can summon rain and wind. Guardian dragons keep a watchful eye over the treasure. Some dragons have five fingers. The paper dragon – or kite – is the first portent of fortune, hills and plains. It makes wishes come true. We try to get oriented in the present-day world. Our work, perception, and speculating have a certain ecologic-philosophical dimension. We do not strive to literally name single details. We are not trying to be somewhat appellative. Through our distinctive approach, we work with poetics, metaphors, and artistic depiction of current affairs. It’s a possibility. A tool. The way of refining a shared point of view. We invest our time and skills into the belief in the whole and the individual. We insert ourselves onto a blank page.


Tabula Rasa is an outlook on the world and the approach towards it. We want to surround ourselves with work and honesty. To go to the essence and to the depth of the blank slab.


Words are words, actions are actions.
