Yesterday we performed the last performance of our game performance ‘lim’. Or of its independent prelude, but about that a bit later. At the moment the prevalent feeling is gratitude for the excellent work everyone in the working group did despite extraordinary challenges. Another thing I often come back to is that art is essential. Its task to ask difficult questions and propose alternatives also during challenging times is essential. This task is never more important than safety, but it’s essential to critically ask what practices are safe - or safer. Some comments heard at the last performance: ‘I’ve never been in anything like this before.’ ‘That was SO much fun!’ It was also that.
