Quite Rituals: Closing Event

The closing event of the duo show by Katya Tsareva and Alexander Tarasenko

Curated by Sophie Nowakowska

6:00 pm: ‘Coherence Protocol’ by indexthumb

Coherence Protocol presents a set of gestural rituals designed to reorient the body to physical perception following its digital transformation.

7:00 pm: ‘You Are Someone’s Son’ by Kuba Pawelczak

The Butoh performance unfolds as a journey into the terrain of authority and relationships with symbolic teachers who remain embedded within our artistic and spiritual paths.

8:00 pm: ‘Lucida’ by Zara Sands ft. Sophia Marie Davison & Josh Curtis

Inspired by the illusion of objectivity and gendered distortion of sight – and of the body as a clear barometer for pain – Lucida invites audiences into a space where the boundaries between witnessing and perceiving begin to dissolve.
