Mehrwertstücke...a performance

...and then I found these plastic bags. Loads of them. And when I heard there'd be the opportunity for a dance performance and experimental costumes, I decided to design "haute couture" out of H&M plastic bags and yellow bin liners and also these huge see through cover up plastics you would use to paint your house...

The performance was all about the worth and value of things and people and we asked ourselves these questions:
"what determines my worth?"
"how much am I willing to pay for..."
"are things always worth the prize I have to pay for? are they worth more? or less?"
The result was shown at the "Tourm" festival in Basel, enhanced by the music of John Featherstone , the idea and choreography came from Nathalie Frossard, the dancers were Nathalie, Basia Wehinger, Romana Ramer.
