Sessility

Sessility is a project where we will explore the possibilities of communication between plants and humans. We will try to transform how we develop our relationship with the ecosystem. We will use technology as a potential medium to open new communication channels. We will study the behavioural patterns of plants, their movements, sounds, as well as their impact on people. As a species, we have to redefine our relationship with plants and the environment. Plants function in a different temporal order, hence we tend to see them as green automatons, instead of living beings requiring respect and autonomy. The project will result in a durational research-based performance, a sound and choreography installation for two performers and plants. The project is a collaboration with Kuba Borkowicz. Sonia and Kuba are cousins, a family duo of dancers/performers. Currently living in a forest. Together, they work on interdisciplinary projects.
