You know, I’ve always been fascinated by that word, ‘hat’. I mean, it’s so close to the word ‘head’.
Can that be a coincidence?
What do you think?
The Princess
The Princess has lost her fairy tale!
She has accidentally fallen in between the words.
Beyond the words, in a space without meaning, without rules, and of boundless fantasy, a space of true poetry - she discovers what beauty is really like.
The Princess, performed during Rietveld UNCUT exhibition ’take awalk on the wild side’ in Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, 2019.
An experimental performance recorded and streamed during lockdown 2020.
The Princess
First apparition of the Princess, performed in 2018.
The viewers are sent out with a poem into a field of thistles to find the Princess. When they find her she would look up from her mirror and end the performance. The magic is broken… but is it really?
Backstage. The PRINCESS is getting ready for the show.
A performance where I bring in a piece of night sky. About transforming the sky at night into something tangible and making it into an object of contemplation.
A play with light, impenetrability, darkness and movement accompanied by sounds of the night.
