We were once all untouched.
As time passes, we get covered with various films, get decorated with different things.
Eventually they become part of us. Good or bad, consciously or not..
Everything we obtained as it goes.
Do we make the most of it...?

The first production "STARE" from TANSIK was presented in July 2009 at theaterforum kreuzberg in Berlin, with our special guest artist Mr. Shuichi Chino who is currently based in Berlin.
The evening consisted of two experimental theater pieces with spacy and visual music as its main principal, with the attempt of using the instruments as a character.
