Performance: When I See You. I See a Garden (Solo)
Maritea Dæhlin, MADRUGADA, 2025
When I See You. I See a Garden (Solo)
30 August 12:00–16:00*
When I See You. I See a Garden unfolds through three live iterations presented within the exhibition A-FI-SA. But it might not be tomorrow. The exhibition draws from Maritea Dæhlin’s performance practice into video, photography, sound and text, while the live works move back toward the presence of the live body, voice, collective situations and shared space.
Solo is a stripped-down individual work where voice, text and presence form the core of the situation. Through minimal actions, shifting vocal structures and live presence, the work returns to the body and to performance as a central site within Dæhlin’s practice.
*The performance will take place at an undisclosed time during the exhibition’s opening hours.
