Outside in-touch
Hi, my name is Hannah.
I will be guiding you through a shared performance from your chair.
This performance is only available during day light hours.
In preparation for our journey please choose the window you most enjoy looking out of and place a chair next to it. Place the chair so you have an equal view out of the window and the room & photograph your performance space. Ensure you’re warm, bring with you a blanket and a cushion to sit on and with. Wear warm and comfortable clothes but remove your socks. You can choose to listen to this performance through headphones, or a loudspeaker.
We will be considering the contrast between fleeting contact and familiar interpersonal contact. I chose this place as it is somewhere I find rest and comfort, a place for reflection and meditation. I enjoy the juxtaposition of this place, being in the comfort of my home but maintaining a connection to the outside world.
Once you have found your space and collected the things you need begin the recording in your own time, and I look forward to speaking with you then!
​
If you have any reflections and feel like sharing them, please write or draw your response to our performance and submit an image of your performance space below, on this website. Alternatively, you can also send an image of your performance space or a response to: greta.gauhe@yahoo.de

I, Hannah Adams, am a dance artist, and my creative practice is a result of a mixed bag of training in ballet and contemporary dance. My most recent academic accolade was my MA in developing artistic practice from The Place. Though my movement style is always developing, it is rooted in release based techniques, using gravity and my weight to drive my movement. The focus of my artistry is the expression of sociopolitical issues, through an abstract marriage of movement, material, and sound. I have also worked closely with Follow Through Collective for a number of years, as a performer and creative. In my free time I enjoy swimming, time outdoors, and all things social and sunny!
