present.in.difference
With a new concept for urban interactions, present.in.difference was founded by the Kultur Jahr 2020. A cinematic-dance exploration of the Lend district in Graz, its inhabitants and its sound. In just under 20 minutes, a physical-performative narrative unfolds in the film about the complexity of the surrounding living space, its different speeds and lived realities. A narrative about encountering and becoming part of urban dynamics as an artistic interdisciplinary reflection on the sociology of space. It was present in Volksgarten-Pavillon in 2021.
In 2022, the dance film was selected for Dança em Foco - International Video & Dance Festival, in Rio de Janeiro.
In 2023, it was part of Lendwirbel Festival. The film was projected on the walls of Mariahilferplatz, what made it possible to experience it in a whole new way.
