He is wearing beige coloured shirt with brown and orange stripes and orange trousers. Behind him is Christian, a white, standing white skinned dancer in a red suit. Nadenh has his left arm up 90 degrees to the side of his body supporting Christian's right leg, which is lifted 90 degrees in parallel with Nadenh's arm. The dancers are in a darkly lit space with two grey boulders beside them]
The Journey Between is an exhilarating exploration of how humanity connects and disconnects, long signified in mythology surrounding the movement of stars and planets. Two cosmic entities, embodied by dancers Nadenh Poan and Christian Brinklow, search for each other through space. The high-energy performance of the dancers is complemented by immersive digital projections created by learning disabled artists from Carousel, resulting in a visually stunning work.
