Fountains

In their latest work, «Fountains», deufert&plischke, together with performers of all ages and bodies, embark on a choreographic search for traces in movement, dance, language, image and electronic music, exploring the body as a fountain, as a fluid cycle, as an outlet zone. In the midst of helplessness, defiance, shame and lust, an immersive happening is created with local people and performers at each new location where the performance travels . It started between the empty Schwelmebad, the Spinnereischwelm and the lake landscape in Oravikoski and performers aged 7 - 87.
