Audience, including school children and senior citizens, were invited to assist a site-specific where two performers present a performative exercise based on two poems, related to water: “Water is a luxury” and “The last drop”. In the specific case of Wissenschaftspark, internal spaces (central and common space of the building) as well as external spaces (park and lake) were used. This performance had the collaboration of Kis Olivér (Hungary) and Marion Schumacher (Germany).
The second station was an immersive installation with videos (that had the collaboration, with voices, from participants from the workshop and also a vox-pop, in Gelsenkirchen) and pictures.
The two stations focused on the growing problem of lack of water, addressing global challenges, ecologically and socially.
