For Oneself : a Performance and Ritual Course Showcase

Talking to Yourself, in the quiet setting of the AAU Library, delves into the world of self-dialogue. Genevieve Smith uses insightful interviews and captivating cinematography to reflect the raw emotions and introspective moments of ordinary individuals as they confront the question “Do You Talk To Yourself?”. 

Weaving Wishes is an immersive exhibition that explores the interconnectedness of human desires and aspirations. In an age where we are bombarded with countless images and messages, Weaving Wishes offers a space for introspection, reflection, and safety. Drawing inspiration from the intricate web of life, the centerpiece of the exhibition is a swing/net that symbolizes this interconnectedness.

Shoushanian invites you to engage with the concept of interconnectedness by physically interacting with the swing/net and experiencing the sensation of being part of a larger network of hopes and dreams. Through a combination of visual art, soundscapes, and interactive elements, Weaving Wishes aims to evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation.

By tying hopes and dreams on a ribbon and attaching them to the web, we can create a space for quiet contemplation and shared experience. This will bridge connections and foster empathy among its visitors, ultimately weaving together the diverse tapestry of human aspirations. Location: AAU courtyard
