Description

A shield of lead, no eye may behold

LEAD is a ritualistic site-specific choreographic performance with spoken text for three women, presented at the Twin Ottoman Bath in Trikala. Through stillness, micro-movement and breath, the work approaches the body as a site of memory, trauma, protection and vulnerability. Lead becomes the central metaphor: a material that is heavy and toxic, yet also protective and insulating. Three women form a collective body that breathes, synchronizes, shields itself and remains exposed. Breath becomes pulse and a mechanism of connection, while stillness is approached as a way of remaining present within a world of constant pressure, speed and exposure. Developed through low intensities of sound and light, the performance creates a space of shared silence and coexistence, where the body is allowed simply to exist.
