HOW TO UNFOLD THIS TOOLBOX?
Hello, welcome to this presentation. Welcome to this stairs in PAF. This is my 9th presentation in apass. I always come with sth prepared, sth in which I had invested time to work, some preparatio. Lets say that I was very productive. I was working a lot, and work is sth nice, sth respectful, one feels good. Let's say that I make a research of the place and then I share what I find with you. But this time I really had to think of what to share or test so that I can use it later in the End presentation.
I have presented in many different states of being (and I'm talking about my body): being disoriented after moved into a city that i don't know, being with the energy that leaves a strong discussion, being in crisis with the work, being very sick, being reborn after recovering from an accident where I literally died, being happy, strong and motivated about life and being alive, being in love with the work and with who I'am becoming…
I say this because as i put myself, my body as the medium through which the work is presented, it means that i have to deal with these states of being in order to become that medium. I had to find strategies between leaving aside what my body was going through and integrating somehow these different states of being in the work itself.
being commited to sth that is much bigger than I, sth that goes beyond myself.
That means a feeling of vulnerability each time. Each time arriving to a place i was trying to erase this self to let the place speak to me and through me. Each time starting from a 0 point, jumping into a void of the unknown, arriving somewhere without knowing what im gonna find and making sth with what i found that i didnt know beforehand. That implies a lot of effort and energy. It made me feel exhausted and wondering from where to nurture and to take this energy back.
So in in the lasts presentations I had the need to extend the work outside my body, to detach from this medium, i was trying to find strategies to spread it out, so that it could exist without me being there, without me being present. So I took this toolbox, that I presented at the begining of the block, where I could actually put all the tools and resources that I have, and bring it to each place that i visit, as a kind of buddy or co-conspirator.
The presentation is part of the research 'The construction of performative Space' developed within the framework of a.pass.
