With the aim of infecting more bodies, Maciej Sado invites all participants to embark on a journey into his Northing practice. It’s uncanny, it’s eerie, it’s diffracted, it’s full of ghosts.

In this Performance Project, we will go through the rehearsal process, exploring both the physical and conceptual layers of Northing, eventually arriving at a score-based conclusion in the form of a performance. We will work both indoors and outdoors, gathering essential bodily sensations and objects of survival to support this oblique dance. Together, we will read, reflect, and dwell on how to embody this entangled phenomenon.

Northing was initially developed in collaboration with Andrea Zavala Folache.
