GILBERTANDGRAPE:MISSING YOU MOSTLY

PERFORMANCE & VIDEO INSTALLATION

One action performed in Norway and one in UK. The two performers run into the night thinking about people they miss and cannot physically be with. Dressing up to face the different conditions, equipping ourselves and our audience with objects that entails all our longing, sending our wishes into the night.


"In a time where new technology is replacing many of the physical factors in our lives we ask ourselves how to translate this. And we seek solutions on how we may find a substitute for a physical space despite being geographically or physically separated.”


The piece was commissioned during the rules&regs artist residency in the medieval vaults of Southampton City in September 2005. Rules and Regs is a practice-led development programme supporting Live Artists to create new work in response to rules that challenge habits and stimulate creativity.

Also performed at Performance Day 2 Tou Scene Stavanger, (N) 2006 and Theatre=Risk, Study Gallery of Modern Art (UK).
