Temporary Collection

Tiina Sööt and Dorothea Zeyringer create rhythmic, poetic structures by using every-day movement, language and objects. The workshop’s subject will be collecting. The participants will join Sööt/Zeyringer in exploring how personal collections arise and how to transform research into poetic, humorous images. Objects telling private stories become the starting point for performative exercises. The workshop analyses how personal and collective decisions change the meaning, functionality and performative potential of those objects. Individually, in pairs and in groups, short performances will be created based on a number of tasks and subsequently shared with the rest of the group.
