To organize our disappointments is a joyride into failing. In this participatory performance, artists Olga Spyropoulou and Katriina Kettunen explore how disappointments occur and how they persist, stored in little pockets of memory called “things” and then put away yet in close proximity.

​

The performance is an intimate encounter between two performers, a box of troublesome objects, and a small audience. During the one-hour-long performance, the artists share fragments of their lives through a close inspection of these objects and ask the audience for help in organising them in a display that leaves everyone happy. For a moment.

​

To organize our disappointments is part of the Reality Research Center’s OFF programme  2020.

​

The performance is presented in Turku in collaboration with New Performance Turku Festival and Turku Kunsthalle.
