In music, silence is as important as it is to produce a tone. In dance, stillness is as important as movement and in performance, art stillness can become a very strong tool to underline a certain moment. And yes, stillness can be very active and very loud too. We will connect the made research this weekend to produce performances for the camera and freeze active moments into one or a series of photographs.

Research questions (Examples): “Am I not moving, if I am standing still?”, “What is the activity in stillness?”
