Untitled (Breath Play) is a live installation that the audience can watch, touch, and interact with. It's a combination of an exhibition piece and participatory performance.
In Untitled (Breath Play), the central question is: “How to breathe in a performance?”.
The setup is simple: one performer is in a vac bed while the other one is in the space as a guide for the audience and a safety person. The audience members have the chance to connect with their own breathing and with the breath of another. They can explore how breath animates a body and control the performer’s breathing.
How does it feel to have someone’s breath in your hands?
