Site-specific performative intervention
`What happens when nothing happens?`
PostPlay Lab, 2020
The territory of Babyn Yar will become a space for the group's performative research. We explored the boundary state where a person dissolves in the landscape (in Babyn Yar we can talk about it literally because human bodies are transformed into soil and sprout trees), and the landscape becomes the subject of performance.
Without erecting any monuments, we recreated the process of commemoration, allowing the landscape to manifest itself as an act of remembrance. What is the responsibility of the human toward space? What changes occur when nature acquires subjectivity? How does national memory intertwine in the territory with personal memory? What happens in the space when nothing happened to it from the side of authorities and cultural politics?
