Description
en A movement inspired by our week’s research on time and a poem by Estonian poet Contra - approx.translation:
I have a clock on my wall
Where a door opens every hour and a hand appears, showing time with the fingers
Afterwards it shows the middle finger
The time is going away

The movement reflection lingers in the tension between time that is “counted” and can “pass” and perceived as many separate units, and the time in the body that is more experienced as a process, that is eternal, an uneven flow. Can a river “pass” or go away? My week’s reflection is also on how dimension of time is experienced differently in different bodyparts. On the last day of our residency I offered an exploration- inspired by BMC (c) - on different perceptions of time in different parts of the body.
Those differences of time in a single body is currently also very present in the nature- with trees remembering the summer only in some parts of their branches.
