About While Taking Shape
I know it’s happening, but who is it happening to?
– Kae Tempest
How close does something need to happen for me to feel it, to sense a connection or a responsibility? While Taking Shape was born from this question, from the growing feeling of detachment in a world where terrible events are constantly displayed before our eyes through the media: An endless flood of images, at high speed and stripped of any context, that seems to freeze our ability to feel, turning proximity into a kind of numbness.
The research for While Taking Shape began from the desire to dive deeper into questions of connection and responsibility, from the need of insisting on the question of what it means to bear witness.
