How to breathe in a performance?
Breath play is a durational participatory performance which will take your breath away. This journey into breathing is realised within 5 days and takes the form of a short encounter per day through a different medium: by email, text message, one-on-one encounter, and a live installation.
Each day, participants get instructions which increase their awareness of their breath and the breathing with others. The performance takes place in three different locations: your everyday environment, a covert site and an art venue.
Breath play is an invitation to explore breath for people who are curious to feel and see a performance through breathing and to embody the performance in their everyday life.
