In the performance of Kendell Geers, the task of the two individuals of different sexes is to hold a mirror in the air without letting it fall using their naked bodies. As time progresses, this task gets more and more difficult as the bodies start to sweat then to tire. On the other hand, the challenge is not purely of physical nature, but has psychical and emotional aspects as well in as much as it becomes clear to the individuals that in order to succeed they have to rely on the other without seeing them only their own reflection. The beholders of this performance, which balances between dance and martial arts, can be witnesses of that the cooperation may only work if the individuals distance their own egos in the right time and with the right force, while they partake of the others&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Dancers: Kathryn Vickers, Vakulya Zolt\u00e1n<\/p>\n<p>Venue: <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Workshop Foundation \/ <\/span><span style=\"color: #282828;\">Jur\u00e1nyi Incubator House (1027 Budapest, Jur\u00e1nyi u. 1.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Ritual Resist <\/em>was created as part of the <em>Check Your Head!<\/em> program of the <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">OFF-Bienn\u00e1le Budapest<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8790\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8790\" title=\"Photo: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-590x393.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" class=\"wp-image-8790 size-featured_small\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-590x393.jpg 590w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10271.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8790\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8798\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8798\" title=\"Photo: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-590x393.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" class=\"wp-image-8798 size-featured_small\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-590x393.jpg 590w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10321.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8798\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8805\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8805\" title=\"Fot\u00f3: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-590x393.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" class=\"wp-image-8805 size-featured_small\" srcset=\"https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-590x393.jpg 590w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/offbiennale.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/DSC10591.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8805\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fot\u00f3: D\u00e1niel V\u00e9gel \u00a9 OFF-Biennale Budapest archive<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Concept: Kendell Geers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":8792,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"biennale_esemeny":[34],"projekt_category":[37],"tagek":[],"class_list":["post-8829","projekt","type-projekt","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","biennale_esemeny-34","projekt_category-events"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
