The Thing

Performance
2020
Duration: 15 min
Performed at A Night of Live Art, Galleria Huuto, Helsinki
Curating: Inari Virmakoski and Ilkka Pitkänen

In this performance I explored the relation between material and meaning: when does meaning condense in material as a readable sign and when does it fade away from it. I was especially interested in the materiality of face expressions, words and graphics which I approached by working with duration and repetition. The performance included sound, voice, movement, a dictionary and a Power Point presentation.
