Except on Sundays

Artistic genre: Dance in public spaces
Year the performance was created: 2025

There are eight of us artists, and we spend the day here interviewing people. A series of questions answered with a gesture, which together form what we collectively wish to leave in this space: an exploration of our shared resources, the ideal setting for our daily lives, our urgent concerns, and our impulses. By arranging the space so that it becomes at once a meeting place, a performance venue, and a showcase for the imagination, the artists create the performance in real time. At the end of the day, we share the gestures and stories of the day during a fleeting and unique gathering.

The goals of the residency:

The company is in the final stages of the creative process and is now testing the work in its entirety through this unique "full-day" format.
