Question of Belief proposes a demonology of the contemporary. Inspired by the contemplative practices of the desert monks, dancers Madalina Dan and Manon Parent deftly navigate between actionism and sloth, distraction and apathy, procrastination and compassion fatigue. Demons appear and disappear through the slowly inflating landscape by Dan Lancea. Question of Belief invites an embodied look at those parts of ourselves—and others—that probably should just be ignored, but always seem to crop back up.
