Textile and Voice in the Landscape

Workshop, performance, 2019.

‘Voice and Textile in the Landscape’ questions notions of presence in space and celebration of the living. We explore the transmition and sharing of knowledge through actions that invite to (re)connect with our environment and ourselves. With our interventions in specific landscapes and sites, we acknowledge their presence and (re)evaluate our relation with their histories. Designed in a collective approach, we use the voice, fluid materials in textile (fabrics, thread, tape), the listening, the acoustics, walking, cosmological elements such as dawn and night to experiment the relation with time and space. After a theoretical introduction, through multiple experiences (endurance, perception, cyclical time, intuitive and processual approaches), performances are proposed in various urban and natural sites.
