Julian Hetzel (Netherlands / Germany)
I’m Not Here Says The Void
- Thursday Oct 6 / 19:30, Ponec – dance venue
There is always something swept under the carpet, always some kind of skeleton in the closet. You hear strange noises, the floor shakes – and so do you.
Two performers explore black holes and unexpected empty spaces, which they see as the beginning of a journey into the unknown. It is a performance about what is missing, about absence, about all the things that are not here – and thus are all the more present, all the more wanted.
This dark visual poem, which combines elements of visual theater, dance, sculpture, and minimalist electronic music, will take you on a journey through matter. The performance was created as Julian Hetzel’s graduate project at DasArts Amsterdam, and like his other pieces it possesses a political dimension and a documentary touch. After a successful premiere, Hetzel has presented the performance in many different countries.
