TOUCH PERFORMANCE: IN TOUCH (TRANSMEDIALE VORSPIEL 2019)

Through the performance IN TOUCH, presented as part of the festival programme of Vorspiel / transmediale & CTM we hoped to study the value of touch in the digital age. We asked: can touch be art? Could it be activism?

As we swipe our screens more than we touch each other, our very concept of connection shifts. As touch becomes an anomaly, the act of touching radicalises. What exactly are the social impacts of culturally engineered touch-deprivation?

IN TOUCH invited a selected group of touch activists to disrupt our digital dissociation. These professionals of touch confronted audience members one by one in our "lightroom", providing an experience of care and connection free of sexual expectation and a personalised opportunity to explore taboos around touch.

As the performers drew touch choreographies on our skin, their gentle gestures quietly conducted a question: what kind of change can human touch provoke?

We saw tears and fears, curiosity, connection, growth and courage. We saw change.

Next Women on the Verge screening will take place next week, on Wednesday 6th of June.

Who do you become when you can't be yourself, asks our film of the month, as the main character juggles conflicting identities and risks friendship, heartbreak, and family in a desperate search for sexual expression.

The Women on the Verge series, curated by Sara Neidorf and Elinor Lewy, showcases films spanning all genres and eras that explore the social, psychological, and emotional transgressions of women living under the constraints of toxic patriarchy.

DOORS: 18:45, FILM: 19:00

For those who missed the first Berlin exhibition at Monat der Fotografie-OFF, here comes an online take.

NEU IN BERLIN
The Berlin Portraits 2015 - 2016

Ilsa Hellman’s "Neu in Berlin" is a continuous project documenting the stories of new Berliners.

Using a mixture of portraiture and street photography, Hellman captures the diverse range of international newcomers ranging from travelers, artists, refugees, entrepreneurs and drifters. Since her arrival to Berlin, Hellman has portrayed one Berliner a week to explore the inspirations, dreams and realities of the newcomers. What makes individuals reach outside their cultural comfort zones? What are the fears and the victories of the roads less traveled and the lights and shadows of Berlin?

Ilsa Hellman is a Finnish photographer and a video maker based in Berlin.
