Burn Time

On the borders of sculpture and architecture, "Burn Time" - thought as a site-specific piece - is a tour through a meditative and decelerating landscape, where the choreography unfolds from the gesture of burning threads. In a time of perpetual wars between the present and future, the tempo decelerates, becoming quiet and calm. "Burn Time" acknowledges the moment and dedicates itself to the here and now. The quietness of the room, the slow rising of the points of light reminiscent of the hovering of fireflies and the gentle movements of the performers slow the perception of time.

Filmed at Radialsystem, in the frame of "New Empathies", 2020.
