a pulse with no body a sun with no sky
a pulse with no body a sun with no sky is the new installation for the theater space of Ezra Veldhuis & Bosse Provoost. As in their previous projects SUN-SET (2020), Indoor Weather (2021) and All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace (2023), they evoke a world with its own cosmology, constructed from light, sound and scenography.
In a pulse with no body a sun with no sky, Bosse and Ezra create a zone in which spectators are invited to let go of everyday modes of looking and thinking and open themselves to strange, unsuspected connections and affections between patches of light, patches of sound, bodies and devices. Spectators are seated on stage, which is spanned by an arc of light. A voice speaks and speculates about the sensory capacities and dreams of animals, from sponges to rats. For despite our differences, we rhyme biochemically.
