Sàmmelsurium

2019 / Cheminée Nord, Genève, CH

En attendant la mer is a performance by Vesna Bilanovic & David Sentkar presented at
Sàmmelsurium (bureau des questions fondamentales), a carte blanche to Sylvain Gelewski (w. complicity of Héloïse Schibler) by Visarte, Espace Cheminée Nord, Geneva, CH

A dialogue, a thought, a scrap of reality or fiction? A virtual presence or a conversation with absence? A couple or the feminine into the masculine? An installation conceived with 4 hands mixes mediums with performance and suggest an experimental narrative to question the frontier between the imaginary and our reality.
