Collective Body

2020 | ZHdK | ACT v2.0

en: As a collective we work on experimenting with building a collective body in a public space. Trying out various performance scores that initiate a bodily connection and feeling of collectivity that is energetically or visually recognisable for the audience. Hierarchal group dynamics often occurs easier and more naturally and unconsciously as it is a structure in which we are all trained as a society. In a current situation we are faced with even more challenging circumstances. We decided to keep experimenting on finding ways to connect even when the physical contact and working in a common space is not possible. We will present an digital performance that possibly engages similar notions and feelings but finding and using other spaces to initiate connection, such as time, ritual, visuality or sound.
