HERRMANNPLATZ, BERLIN
In this performance, I ask myself how to trust.
I am sitting on a public bench on Herrmannplatz in Berlin, Neukölln, wearing a blindfold and earplugs so that I can neither hear nor see. Next to me on the bench I have a sign that says "I don't hear anything and i don't see anything. I trust you.".
The only documentation of this performance is the sign and my description of the experience, written directly after the performance, at the location of the performance.

In the performance "How to 'take care'" I stand in front of a crosswalk, holding my head, looking left and right as if I want to cross the street, but never cross it.
