«Performance on Falling» is a surrealistic and playful performance in which the hierarchical relationship between gender and identity is dismantled. Inspired by the human being in free-fall, the body’s fragility and the struggle to remain standing, the performance investigates what new possibilities falling can entail for seeing oneself in relation the world.
