In the score of three movements “SEVEN - I am many” the artists consider how the human personality adapts and transforms in its surroundings. Generated on the foundations of an unusual movement research using the 7 elements and 7 animals of Quan Dao Kung Fu, the work describes and shows the amazing capacity we have to show who we are or who we think we should be – like a chameleon blending in with the surroundings and going with the flow or taking bold step out of the mass to make a statement.

The moment of “I am not the person you think I am” is full of secrets, surprises and passion as well as betrayal and conspiracy.
