International Dance performance / Video

Tender Fights 2020

An international cooperation in pandemic times 2020 – 2021 / live

During a hot summer we meet in the only possible place. Held by the sea, we fight tenderly. This is not a performance. It is not a video. It is not a video of a performance. It is a performance in a video. A performance that has never happened, performed in an online format. It is a ruin of a performance, built in the ruins that are inside and around us now. We meet the audience inside these ruins and invite them to experience flickering realities and their multiplicity of time and spaces. What grows in the ruins? What might come out of these cracks and holes? It takes tenderness to fight for it. We meet you there. Welcome to "Tender Fights 2020".

A Live international cooperation in pandemic times 2020 – 2021.
