In silence, Oulu

On 1th and 2th november 2024,

One by one, in the culturhouse VALVE theatre room, the spectator was invited to face me through a one-way mirror.

In silence.

To observe her/his face.

Then mine.

Then our two faces combined in a single image.

Little by little, the mirror is removed, until we find ouselves face to face.

As our body is the place and time of our human condition (D. Le Breton)

Until the light shone on who became the actress/the actor.

Before it gets dark.
