The performative researches that we have been conducting – out of any systematism – around the triple theme Mind-Body-Brain have led us to develop a series of exercises, from the physical to the figurative, that have had the aim to bring forth figures half-way between the personal, the physical reality of the performers and fiction – a fiction necessarily uncertain, as indistinct and changing as reality itself (when reality is not taken for granted). More generally, this has led us to examine the function of fiction in our so-called cynical and disillusioned era and the relationship between the artist and his milieu as regards to the creation of a discourse.
Artistic reasons justify the mobility of the laboratories, as each person invited is put in relation with his background and the diverse situations resulting from this group work confronted and compared. Investigating the relationship between MIND, BODY and BRAIN enjoins he to work directly with the privacy and identity of the performers participating. We choose differents cities looking for the specific reality of each one.
With six performers, Abraham wishes to explore their perception about the connection between the Mind, the Body and the Brain. Questions about the brain functions in relation to the thoughts of the mind and the movement of the body will be researched, composing a one-time Micro-Performance.
