I am not in a room

In the organizer's words:

Bees with sacred fuzz - a fly whose buzzing is the last thing the poet hears before her own death - the touching crickets performing their druidic ghostly hymn in late August - and, in all the poems, a multitude of dashes that open up spaces, suggest the unsaid and activate the reader's imagination: Entrances to the poetic work of Emily Dickinson.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) left behind an enormous body of work with an almost inexhaustible variety of themes, almost exclusively published posthumously. The most important American poet hardly ever left her parental home throughout her life and in the end hardly ever received guests; she established the most intensive relationships with the world, her fellow creatures and fellow human beings virtually from her room.

Using dance, music, light and figures, the artists from Taiwan, Austria and Germany weave an associative web of gestures, sounds, energies, songs, spaces and contexts.
