What does it mean to truly see? What do we perceive, and what do we imagine? Can we ever fully understand what another person sees?

We’ve Got Eyes in Our Elbows explores alternative, embodied ways of perceiving, understanding, and connecting. Through movement, imagination, and spoken poetry, the performance invites audiences into a shared space where perception, empathy, and presence become central.

The work emerges from the lived experiences of two disabled dancers: one with a visible disability and the other with an invisible disability. The different ways they experience and navigate the world — and the discrepancy between how they perceive themselves and how they are perceived by others — form the starting point of the work.

Rather than treating seeing as something fixed or certain, We’ve Got Eyes in Our Elbows asks what might happen when we allow perception to become relational: something we create together through attention, curiosity, imagination, and mutual effort.

Here, the body becomes a site of knowledge. Movement becomes a way of listening. And seeing is no longer limited to the eyes.

We’ve Got Eyes in Our Elbows is an invitation to sense beyond the expected, to question what we think we know, and to meet one another somewhere between what is visible, what is felt, and what can only be imagined.
