Out of roots in circus and martial arts, Merzouki explores an eclectic world through the lens of hip-hop. He has created 21 works on a wide array of subjects over the past 17 years, including the 2006 “Terrain Vague” set in a fantasized no-man's land, and the 2012 Franco-Taiwanese “Yo Gee Ti.”

It's amazing to see how people have been able to seamlessly connects such seemingly different kinds of performance. It's true that in a way, everything is just forms of movement, but it takes a lot to create a piece that works smoothly and looks good. Having recently seen DanceLight here at CMU, I was reminded of how incredibly well dance and music can be used to create stories and convey emotion. I would love to be able to see what Kafig was able to make.
