Saskia Edens reflects the whole room as well
as her public with her mirrored costume. Minimal
movements transform the reflections of the room
into motion, you could even say, into fluidity.The
images resemble a discovery voyage into space with
creatures distorted by this mirroring.Standing in
opposition to one another, each face melts into
the other. What does one see from the other? And
what does one see from him/herself in the others?

Common Chorion: The rare form of one-egged
twins, Siamese twins, occurs when the egg cells

the thoughts of one another. In many cases it is
not clear to differentiate where the body of the
one leaves off and the body of the other begins.
How can people who have a doubled identity with
ther own body understand this phenomenon?

The
performance stromboli_terra di dio of Luna Winter
is a kind of self-test which plays with a system
of temporary inconsistencies. It is an interweaving
of timelines and a headlong dive into existing worlds
in order to dissolve them through interplays and
invoke a new creation. As Pool-based,
they are determinations and it is through artifice
that their liberation is embodied.

schon legendäre Naked Kitchen, performt durch
