On love-the hybrid performative spectacle / 2017 / Lublin

As part of the 22nd Konfrontacje Teatralne Festival, held on October 8-15, 2017 in Lublin, together with an international group of artists (Paweł Korbus & Stereo Akt (Poland-Hungary)), we opened a safe, creative space for conversations about love.

Together, in action, we explored the diverse spectrum of love affects, toxic love, inspiring love, refreshing flirtation, and even fulfilled, total love. Impossible love.

We, artists from Poland, Hungary, Turkey and Belarus, built a temporary team that used interdisciplinary tools to create an informal performance About Love.

We examined what words and emotions articulate ideal love in the mainstream culture of each participant.

The final performance was the result of six days of workshop work. We carried out performance actions in a relaxed atmosphere created by the guests of the festival club. In the performance party we used forms of visual arts, performance art, movement, live music, a DJ set, Polish and Hungarian literature.

My participation in the project consisted of a performative action focused on conversations with viewers about their ideas about love while simultaneously recording their statements with a microphone, compiling a soundtrack by artists from Stereo Akt and creating something like a musical poem about love.
