WHAT Audio walk
Coastline narratives
All Water is Tidal is a performative and philosophical walk that takes its starting point in different types of coastlines, reflecting on how the lines and structures of the landscape are mirrored in our bodies and consciousness. Timelines, movements, transformations. The walk explores our relationship with landscapes — how we internalize them and let them speak through us. It consists of a poetic audio narrative, experienced both while walking and while resting in the landscape, followed by a mindful encounter with the landscape in an unexpected way. What does our kinship with landscapes mean? Can we look beyond ourselves? In encountering the landscape, can we encounter something other than ourselves?
