Researching through site-specific performances in urban and natural worlds environments, based on movement, voice, text and its relation with those landscapes. While creating enchanted narratives, inspired on micro-phenomenology inquiring method and poetic approaches.

Practicing to encounter place backwards.

Exploring ways of gazing, focussing on awareness, attention, perception and sensing modes.

Allowing places to unfold themselves in variable directions, timing and perspectives.

Second day of explorative collaboration with the visual artist Hilde Flikke.

A two days exploration, where I practiced encountering places by walking backwards, while the visual artist Hilde Flikke wrote imprints of these experiences.

The pen is moving in between the body of the mover, it's anatomy, other bodies, textures, motions.

As l walk backwards, Hilde is mapping out glimpses of this trajectory, from Studio 5 on the seventh floor of KHIO, going out into corridors, stairs, entrance hall till outside the institution building.

This drawing landmarks my passage through the entrance hall.

Practice - where and how to place my thoughts?

Thinking while moving, moving while thinking. Standing while thinking, thinking while standing.

Capturing a thought while seating, standing, walking, placing a thought while standing.

Stand on the top of the thought ( till the post it is glued. It was a technical issue. It became a pause). Thinking while pausing.
