Kinonia

The piece is grounded in the performers’ authentic relationship to the space and the moments when they recall memories from their lives. It seeks to explore everyday existence by revealing socio-cultural snapshots drawn from the performers’ personal experiences. Kinonia specifically investigates different states of being across various environments—public, work, private, and leisure—highlighting the personal and interpersonal dynamics formed within these spaces.

Performers navigate and map their life journeys through specific moments, experiencing them in real time as performers, yet within an imagined space rather than a physical one. Drawing inspiration from Gilles Deleuze’s concept of the Body without Organs, the work explores where the body encounters desire and freedom versus limitation. Through this, performers cultivate a collective consciousness, simultaneously interacting with one another and observing their own experiences.

Kinonia integrates recorded sounds and live voices from the performers’ own experiences to create a poetic, movement-based reflection of this reality.
