<div>Focusing on translating voices into movement from those who identify as or resonate with the qualities of being a woman, <a href="https://saraikacreation.com/double-bind/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Double Bind</a> delivers a universal message of equity, diversity, inclusivity, and human connection.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>Double Bind</em> is a contemporary dance work that integrates spoken word, custom hair art, and costume design. The process has consisted of independent research and interviewing folks from NYC, Italy, and Japan, to acquire a full scope of the cultural experience that women share in sarAika movement collective’s broad community. This allowed them to create an organic script that underlines and empowers women’s voices, about the cascading events and harsh rhetoric that the women’s rights movement has faced over the past few years all over the world. As a collective, sarAika is composed of immigrants and queer women who through this work share their perspectives on the issue.

<div><strong>This work is about all of us.</strong>
</div>
<div>The concept of a double bind, where poor communication leads to dead ends and generalizations are akin to one-way roads, is a unifying structure found in a plethora of issues women face. This project is a central source to inspire audiences to confront these radiating issues that are immediately impacting our lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What we can do.</strong>
</div>
<div>Double Bind aims to generate conversation and spark growth regarding toxic cultural forces that impair women’s lives. As a multicultural company, sarAika movement collective will amplify this discussion to our community in NYC and across the globe so that we may connect about these commonalities and differences we face, and inspire action to change our future. <em>All women deserve to live in a society in which they are respected and appreciated. </em>

<div><strong>Our Identity and Mission</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><a href="https://saraikacreation.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">sarAika movement collective</a> is a contemporary dance collective with a distinct taste for interdisciplinary collaboration. Founded in 2021 by Aika Takeshima, an immigrant from Japan, and Sara Pizzi, an immigrant from Italy, found a common artistic language from their perspective as immigrants living in America. Unifying their skills and knowledge as dancers, choreographers, activists, and part of the LGBTQIA+ community, they gathered a shared goal to create art about and for humans. Their company advocates for a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment. sarAika movement collective’s mission is to help people find possibility and freedom within themselves. No matter the mediums in which they work – movement, dance, theater, music, voice, paint, light paint, poetry, AR technology – the themes of their work are rooted in the sense of what people desire or need to let go of. Emotions, opinions, and experiences are what art embodies, capturing vulnerability. When one witnesses vulnerable work, they feel something. The ability to relate to this kind of art increases one’s connection to their authentic self and allows us to connect to ourselves and our community. sarAika movement collective pursues this value of authenticity to bond their community.<em> Their art is a form of activism documenting key issues and personal insights, to highlight minority groups and underrepresented communities, and create a safe space for reflection. </em>
