Das Andere in der Wiederkehr des Gleichen

In the organizer's words:

The Other in the Return of the Same
- a performative reflection

by and with Charlotte Arens & Jana Mila Lippitz

There are a thousand ways to describe to you what it looks like here. I start writing and get lost in the details. I start again. The more I describe, the less clear the picture seems. I start again, leaving out information in an attempt to outline it more clearly. Something is missing. What is important? For me, for you. What is beautiful? What is special? What is inscribed in my memory? Parts of the room have settled in my memory, in my body. I write from memory. It begins to become imagination. I imagine being there. With you. I write us into this text, into this space. Your words paint a different picture. No less true, just different.

With "Das Andere in der Wiederkehr des Gleichen", Charlotte Arens and Jana Mila Lippitz invite you to a performative reflection on the (im)possibilities of translation from one medium to another. Together with the audience, they search for possibilities and shifts that open up in the process of description and translation. The result is a space that enables diverse reflection on visuality and perception and allows for different sensory experiences.

Audio description:
The work playfully explores descriptions of space and movement and aims to create a dramaturgy for blind and visually impaired audiences. There is no additional audio description.
