*On the 3rd of August 2019 (according the picture with the hanging pool), I went to an hardware store in Berlin to buy screws. On the 2nd floor, there was an inflatable swimming pool hanging. I looked at it and went to the screw section and found what I was looking for. Then, when I was arriving to the ground floor to pay, I turned around and went up again to look at the hanging pool. I stoped some meters away and I took the picture. Then I thought: the pool would be an "excuse" to undress - to be more vulnerable, to be together!
๐ฃ๐ข๐ข๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ ๐ข๐ง๐๐ข๐ก๐ฆ is a gathering that stems from the need of entangling a performance event with an intimate and cozy space in which the focus won't remain solely on performing but on the potential of an encounter: the spontaneity of touch, cuddles and care.
We have been collectively & also culturally deprived of the plain innocence of being naked together. Once we can see and honour each other in our raw and vulnerable nakedness, then we can create bonds in a wholly different level.
The gathering happens in the living room of my apartment situated in Kreuzberg (Berlin). After emptying out the living room, a 3 by 2 meters inflatable swimming pool is installed.
