The performances thematize the handling of image production in the digital photo age.
On the one hand, as a subject posing in a tourist cityscape. On the other hand as
reversal of the pose by the photographer. To what extent does the
camera itself become the pose? We are interested in sensitizing ourselves to the origin of an image of live performances.
This results in a problematic discourse between the immediate perception of reality and the simulation of reality. The terms perception and reality suggest the idea of space and action in space, which can no longer be easily separated in the postmodern world. As performers, we must take seriously our responsibility towards the image that we allow to become an image.
