between id & ego
Between Id & Ego explores the tension between the true self and the self presented to the world. The work examines the compulsive thoughts and internal conflict that arise when one grapples with the question of identity—wondering which version of oneself is authentic or if both exist simultaneously. Through movement, Between Id & Ego delves into the complexities of self-awareness and the push-pull between the desire for acceptance and the need for personal truth. The piece navigates the psychological space between identity and performance, reflecting on the tension between these competing forces.
The music for Between Id & Ego was composed by Colin Kemper, whose original score enhances the emotional depth and psychological complexity of the work. The soundscape provides an evocative backdrop, complementing the movement and further amplifying the themes of identity, conflict, and transformation.
