散落的空间
表演时我们缘几重现实安住？是什么把表演的时空系在一起？又在哪里散开？
《她的脸》系列倒数第二个场景继续多层次多主题的线索。舞者、编舞、表演者Valentina Bordenave和音乐人Thomas Mayer以实时构作二人组的创作架构探讨诸如流亡、历史叙事破碎以及对缺失的整体性的渴求等普世的离散经验。
Valentina1968年出生在阿根廷，对于她，逃亡、迫害和移民已深深地刻进家族传承。Valentina和Thomas的作品面对自由的可能性进行反思：既然艺术上和政治上都被从熟悉的规则和既有的常识里抛出去，就启用新的个人方式和个人语汇，交织全新的对话。两位艺术家使用他们的身体、嗓音和乐器，从想象力的边缘开始，准备就绪，穿刺，探索，重建一个假设的世界。
策兰的诗《无人玫瑰》《诗篇》以及苏珊戈瑟的文本再次成为表演发声的部分。所有这些诗意的歌咏都提示那些远离我们的人的在场，他们的面孔虽然不再，却在诗的残篇里闪耀。Valentina在她柏林的公寓携Thomas一道欢迎观众。这些脉冲对观众发挥效用，观众在一条虚拟的时间线里穿过自己的个体空间。“分形”的运动模式打开多重多向的空间，形成声音、电声、多语文本表面的诸多回音室。

Scattered Space
How many realities do we inhabit when we are performing? What holds the performance space-time together? Where does it split?
The penultimate episode of "Her Face" continues the multi-layered polythematic thread of the series. In their instant composition duet, dancer, choreographer and performer Valentina Bordenave and musician Thomas Mayer explore the universal diasporic experience of exile, historical fragmentation and projections of longing for lost wholeness.
Born in Argentina in 1968, for Valentina flight, persecution, emigration are deeply inscribed in the genealogy of her family. The work of Valentina and Tom is a reflection of possible liberties: Being politicly and artistically catapulted out of the familiar world of rules or commonplaces, new individual approaches and vocabularies come together to weave new dialogues. With their bodies, voices and instruments, both artists start at the edge of their imagination, ready to penetrate it, to explore it. Reconstruction of a hypothetical universe.
Once again, the poems „Niemandsrose/Psalm" by Paul Celan and texts by Susanne Gösse become the articulated pieces of the performance. All of them poetic "Gesänge" about the presence of all those who have left us, whose faces, though lost, shimmer again in poetic fragments. In Valentina's Berlin flat, she and Tom welcome the audience. The impulses have an effect on the spectator, who travels on a virtual timeline through his or her own individual spaces. The fractal movement patterns open up multiverse spaces that now form the echo chambers for sounds, electric guitar music, multilingual text surfaces.
