We
Overnight performance-installation in 3 acts
Mixed-media, sound, script, 15h
2020

We is a major performance that invites you to a multi-sensory environment where matter and bodies are in a constant flow of transfiguration. A fabulating and magical playground of sensory experiments and visual storytelling explore visions of new forms of coexistence between humans and nonhuman life forms.

For one and a half years J&K were in residency at Inter Arts Center and Inkonst, Malmø, making research by using guided meditations to explore artificial and natural materials and objects such as everyday things, virtual images, minerals, plants, machines and smells.

The result is a hybrid work between visual and stage art that challenges the traditional human-centric perspective onto the world and contributes to the urgently needed rethinking of the relationship between culture and nature in the face of the climate crisis.
