“Boundaries of Reality” is a visual dance performance inspired by the Western Gate of Serdica—not only as an architectural heritage site from the ancient and early Byzantine city but also as part of the modern urban environment. The performance focuses on boundaries, not so much in their historical context as a protective function but rather as an opportunity for connection. Through the art of contemporary dance, visual transformations, and music, the audience will become part of a continuous movement from individual protected spaces to collective environments, from the past to the future, with new possibilities for connection through identity and belonging.
