Performance: …of all the ways we dare to heal
7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.
To mark the opening of the exhibition What to Do with Tenderness?, Veronika Varga-Farkas, owner of the Trier pole dance studio Pegasus Pole, explores in her performance …of all the ways we dare to heal (2024) the unexpected connections between tenderness and resistance. In experiences that push the boundaries of the body, it reveals itself as breaking norms, balanced between fragility and resilience—its tenderness and vulnerability defying environmental forces and gravity. The performance is dedicated to delicate and caring moments that carry the potential for collective healing.
