A few examples of a series of interventions in public space asking questions i was asking myself - trying to answer them through the experience of performance.
This series of different formats of performances was also a research about the medium of performance itself : asking is it also a performance without an audience? Is it also a performance without documentation?

How to MEMENTO MORI ...
​​
​
was one of the interventions in which i went to the graveyard at night, laid down on a white sheet next to a grave and stayed for three hours. Nothing remained but the white sheet with the traces of the soil.

​
How to trust...
​
was another intervention in which i sat in the middle of Hermannplatz, Berlin, for one hour with a blindfold and earplugs, holding a sheet saying "i can't hear you, i can't see you, but i trust you".
Nothing documented this performance but a text that i wrote right after describing the experience.
