Performative Installation
Hard Skills
In “Hard Skills”, a landscape in motion emerges in the form of a rotating wall of long textile cords. Two performers penetrate the material, dive into it and detach themselves from it again.
Connie Böhnisch’s works are shaped by an intense interplay of choreography, spatial design and the exploration of material.
Offering permeability and resistance at the same time, the wall opens up a space of experience about embodiment, connectedness and transience. The title of this performative installation refers to a form of knowledge that is increasingly being forgotten: the ability to be nature. “Hard Skills” is an invitation to perceive a jointly emerging web in which human beings and their surroundings are inseparably connected.
