The performance responds to a necessity: exploring and researching a liminal ecotone and delving into its relationship with nature and the sea.

A Liminal Ecotone is a place of transition, an inorganic entity that ferments in a limbo between being itself and mutating into something different. Eco stands for home, Tono signifies tension. The two combined represent the necessity of learning to live in an ever- changing habitat of tensions, a house that oscillates between art and culture, humans and creatures. Our skin becomes every day thinner, every day more absorptive until mutating into what was before considered a foreign body.

We share about 70% of our genes with yeast and other numerous caduceus organisms.

Our bodies host microorganisms with which we install symbiotic relationships that encourage the growth and development of our vital functions. Our body is a sponge and as a sponge it absorbs the climate and the habitat surrounding it. Even if the skin gives us the illusion of being impermeable it does transpire, it does sweat, we do urinate, we do ingest, we do ejaculate, we do produce, we breathe, we cry.

A while ago the space between our bodies was set by the sea, now we carry the sea with us, we are containers of the water, of the sea. Our body ephemeral and ever changing, so what we are and what we will be could be defined as a mutating aquatic creature or environmental being.

Our trans-corporality makes us reconsider ethics until we assume a new, different value, the ethics of a new organism that is more conscious, responsible and responsive towards others and its surroundings. It is the ethics of uncertainty, diving into the unknown. This trans-corporal transition it’s seen as a ritual and is activated within the performance in three acts of liminality.
