Holding Space: Pickle Factory Season 5

The second week of Holding Space is themed around PEOPLE.
Solene Weinachter from Scotland addresses how we deal with death and loss through the performance After All, alongside several workshops and engagements exploring embodied practice.
Ef_femininity – an Indo-Swiss collaboration – is created through documentary process, and questions how we look at femininity and effeminacy.
After opening Pickle Factory Season 1 in 2018 with a solo, Padmini Chettur returns with a full buffet of engagements including Stilling – an ensemble piece, which zooms in on the points where connection and disjointedness meet in our bodies.
