The Migrant Body Project examines immigration through Paula Higa's artistic lens. In life, we often face uncertainties and unknown paths. Through a dance-theatre performance, the Migrant Body project tries to answer some critical questions in relation to human displacement; what is beyond a waypoint? How do we feel when moving between two different spaces? What is it to be an immigrant? The performance invites the spectator to reflect on the concept of immigration and the migratory process itself. When we have a choice, we can accept or reject the unknown. If the choice is to move forward, the migration process begins. Which triggers a simple question, who is not an immigrant in this world?
