What Does The Space Know Farah Saleh & Mirjam Sögner
An interactive dance performance installation choreographed and performed by Farah Saleh (PAL/UK) and Mirjam Sögner (DE/AT). The audience is invited to move through the room during the performance and interact with the space and the work in various ways.
The main objective of the intended piece is how to collectively envision, build, create, embody and activate temporary spaces. In their previous research they dealt mostly with testimonials of vanished spaces in Palestine. From there they want to move into a more pro-active, empowered and universal dimension. It is their goal to create both a performative and spatial structure that guides the audience through an embodied experience of the spaces around and within them.
