A LISTENING BODY

Watch on vimeo

With covered heads, we moved slowly and in an invisible way through the shopping center. We were there to listen. Several languages were spoken, and our assistants (the security guards that followed us of their own free choice) explained that mostly people asked what the meaning is…
This question, asked for centuries, everywhere in the world and very often expressed regarding contemporary arts and dance, is the most relevant question also today. Maybe after 30 performances at Gottsunda shopping center, we have some kind of answer to this question.
