About the event
Off to On at the Tank NYC
Off to On examines life, death, and the cyclical nature of existence through Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, focusing on the doctrine of no-self (anatta) and the five aggregates (skandhas): form, sensation, perception, mental formations, and consciousness. It explores dependent origination (pratītyasamutpāda), illustrating how all phenomena arise interdependently, leading to suffering (dukkha). Through movement and reflection, the piece meditates on profound questions: “Who am I?”, “Where do I come from?”, and “Where am I going?”. It navigates the path toward enlightenment (bodhi) and liberation (nirvana), inviting audiences to engage with impermanence, identity, and spiritual awakening.
