What´s left unsaid
What´s left unsaid is a personal letter directed to the performing art scene in Berlin. It addresses questions of contemporaneity and navigating spaces, trends and categorizations of the field.
The letter was created during the Asian Performing Artist Lab residency - APAL, and was presented as a performative reading at Ringtheater Berlin.
