Thrill to sounds of silence
IS IT a cry without voice? Is it a silent revolution? Is it a peaceful protest? Is it a love announcement? It is voiceless even if you have not covered your ears. Feelings are expressed through the white paint on the mime artiste's face and his body movement.
You, as an audience, have to use your eyes to read and your heart to sense the messages delivered by the artiste.
