Performance art, 2025-2026
~40 MIN
In the exhibition hall
Schedule:

”In the piece Rituals for living with, we explore building and being built, and how we position ourselves in relation to the environment. We consider how a relationship with the environment is built at both individual and societal level, along with the interplay with identity, nationalism, nature and family relationships. The piece travels through time, using archives and architecture to question belonging. How do we belong in and find our place in our environment: do we just take from and exploit it, or do we first ask for its permission?
This overall work comprises an installation and a performance. Using process-based and group work, the piece came to life from a manuscript written by a dramaturg, through which the working group jointly explored how text can come to life in a material, auditory and corporal way.”
The performance is part of the Generation 2026 exhibition.
