UMWELT (2003)
Event
UMWELT, conceived as an environment with its own rules, employs a shrewd staging that uses doors and mirrors, openings and closings, which organise our fleeting vision. Within this vibrant framework, made possible by the amplified sound of three guitars, moving bodies go back and forth, appear, disappear and embark on instants of everyday life. They might brandish an object, hug, walk, eat or disappear. The machine gradually starts to go out of control, stops working, repeats itself and starts up again. The various bodies in the space split apart and repeat themselves on the brink of their own existence. UMWELT hollows out the future of our environment in all its vanity and fragility.
