I Know You Are
But What Am I?

“I Know You Are But What Am I” was created by nationally renown Deaf dancer and choreographer Cai Glover of the Montreal company, a Fichu Turning.

In the performance we witness the disorienting experience of an individual becoming confronted by the disabling allowances of his world after losing his hearing. 

The story reminds us that the force and the construction of one’s identity are not just the result of a putting in place of scaffolding that is built from within, it is a psychic event; a fixing in place as much from an exterior force as an interior one.

Information for self-formation is flowing outwards and inwards, afferent and efferent; a becoming that projects onto one a sense of self. In this case it comes from the commanding presence of others, far from the interior workings of self-hood.
