The softest fast (2021)
Performance 12 min, sunflowers, plastic foil, fake fur, essay
The softest fast is a performance that emerged in
2021 amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. Adapted to
the challenging circumstances for live
performances, the 15-minute performance took
shape around music pieces and text fragments
created during the pandemic. Collaborating with
Charlotte Berg as a performer , a ground-based work of flowers,
text, plastic film, and faux fur was activated in a
performative manner. The performance was
conceived as a ritual of connection in the midst
of the isolation imposed by the pandemic.
“Einen Weg zu finden aus der nebeligen Stumpfheit
mich nicht auflösen zu können
in der Alltäglichkeit
....
In Anonymität die harten Grenzen
ansonsten Grenzenlosigkeit.
Liebe ist ein hartes Lernen
so auch die Verbundenheit.
”
with Charlotte Berg and Carla Vollmers
