Art stations fundation - by Grażyna Kulczyk

Still life focuses on people’s relationships with everyday objects and nature. In an hour-long interview/performance, the artist brings to life the statements of Alex, Jenny, Marco and Emma about their immediate surroundings, the nature of things and death. On the stage, avoiding the physical presence of objects, the dancer uses movement to refer to the questions posed to her interlocutors. Consequently, the collage of dance, light, costumes and video projections becomes a still life in its own right.
