Snippets

3 September 2017 · Stefánia Palace, Budapest · later toured in Hungary

In my own words

A game between friends that got beautifully out of hand. Vincent & Vincent wrote, Olga and Péter performed, I photographed, and somewhere in the middle it turned into a travelling show that kept reinventing itself in every town.

Poems reinterpreted through pictures and moving image — but never as illustration. The photograph was allowed to argue with the poem. Some evenings the audience saw an entirely different piece than the night before, and that was exactly the point. Nothing was ever finished; it just kept going.
