Yellow days, yellow haze - Peeled Collective

“You know, for a long time, I felt the urge of running away. Not the kind of running away where you pack a bag, start walking and no one knows where you are. But the kind of running away that gives you a chance at a new life. However, at the moment, I don’t feel this urge too much.”

Yellow days, yellow haze shows a fragment of the life of two people that, for years, have been living together in a house stripped of all
sensory stimulation. Over the course of the performance the way their bodies move through the space and search for connection while living past each other becomes inherent. By isolating themselves from a world that was too overwhelming, a more framed existence has come into being – a life without stimulation, change, and expectation.’


Yellow days, yellow haze is a research of extreme physical closeness within a state of emotional silence from the self and all surroundings.
