Declaration of Independence is a solo performance by Kata Juhasz, Hungarian dancer and choreographer, which is articulated in verbal speech and movements simultaneously in a short personal reckoning with some historical outlook on the possibilities of an authentic artist willing to preserve her independence in a politicized public life on the shifting borderline of the EU.
