BACK TO BASICS: The Alphabet
What are the words, the alphabet of the body? Antonis Liveropoulos presents the ongoing performance project "BACK TO BASICS: The Alphabet", curated by Ingo Starz
The body remembers through gestures, named with words. There are no complete sentences or a structured text. Just words.
Through this indefinite embodied process, words follow one another and the mind suggests. The body replies, or does not.
Stillness is the first thing that happens to the human body. It's a moment of redefining. Movement follows.
What are the words, the alphabet of the body? One can think of anger, greed, happiness, hope, loneliness or weakness.
Through a selection of words, we put our bodies in a specific situation. The performance process starts with the question: "Could it be, that it's time to rethink the body alphabet and its etymology?"
