Quick Info
As we enter the almost empty room, silence envelops us. A large mirror lies on the bare floor. Behind it, a little further away, four bodies form a cluster. Gazing into the distance, they see something we cannot see. It is still silent, and yet an invisible sea seems to gently set the four bodies in motion in unison. We begin to move almost imperceptibly – because we cannot help ourselves, because trance draws us in like the moon draws the water. Together we travel through memory, through pain, through beauty. With no destination in mind – because we do not want to arrive. We want to keep moving. A silent revolution.
Lisa Hofmann's dance performance Utopia unfolds a play of light and shadow to the rhythm of the four swaying bodies. It is about visibility, connection, change – and the fine line between hope and grief in the face of a world marked by (environmental) political and patriarchal setbacks.
