Dreams Beyond the Grind
︎Performance 20’
2023
Two figures in golden work uniforms sit on molten white plastic chairs and rest.
They observe the activities around them, while their always closed eyes seem to gaze into the distance- until an alarm interrupts the tranquility, calling them back to work. The performance Dreams Beyond the Grind narrates a fleeting moment of silence, questioning what remains hidden beyond routine and the everyday grind.
