Géraldine Haas / An Awkward Friend

AN AWKWARD FRIEND

How can one's body recall grievous experiences and let emotions resurface whithin a liminal space between dream and reality?
An Awkward Friend is a sensorial attempt to draw nearer to the embodied sensations and memories around the loss of my father. With the complicity of my friend Ine, we create imaginary spaces for discomfort and uncanniness to emerge and resonate, for ghosts to appear, and for time to flow, expand and sometimes collapse.
