The performance would require walking across cracked ground, tying selected fragments of soil to the soles of my feet with string, and traversing a certain stretch of road. The process of the clay crumbling and repeated attempts to walk are accompanied by a sound borrowed from the domestic space.
The work speaks of an attempt to take one’s family home with oneself. And of the fact that it is time to say goodbye to it and create one’s own – safe and stable.
