In the existence of a singular structure lies the complex interplay of functions that diverge in various directions. As Diana Khoi Nguyen aptly stated, ‘.. the hand which wipes away a tear is also the hand which wields a hammer.' Convergence delves into the delicate balance between cohesion and discord, as performers endeavor to reconcile these fragmented pieces of life, crafting an interconnected entity through the utilization of space, shadows, and circus props.
