    Light Trees

Light Trees is a performance that explores the mechanism of violence in the form of a metaphor. It is a choreography of moving lights and sounds that depicts a world that is significantly changed by violence. It shows the process of violence, the aftermath of trauma and the mechanism of violence that continues to permeate the world we live in.
The content of the performance is based on a manuscript, also titled Light Trees, written by the artistic director, Inky Lee. Light Trees describes how the colors and light of individuals, communities, and societies can be reduced to gray and darkness through violence. Sexual violence, patriarchy, colonization and imperialism are the types of violence explored in the text.
The original inspiration for this text came from the Japanese government's relentless and insistent attempts to revise, distort and erase the history of sexual slavery during WWII. While Light Trees refers to a specific history, its metaphorical form allows it to resonate with other global injustices, such as sexual slavery during the genocide of the Yazidis by the Islamic State, the Iranian revolution, and the women's rights movement in Afghanistan.
The performance is accessible for Deaf and blind/visually impaired audiences and will be a “relaxed performance.”
