Performance
21 Mar. 18:00
Rampa
3H'
Part ghostly repository of unconsumed sensuality, part kinetic and installation-based fadeout, part somatic (strip)tease, This resting, patience addresses attraction, voluntary objectification, proximity, and the aesthetics of nudity. Using an experimental format, it breaks with the passivity of installation and with the temporal delimitation and dramaturgical resolution of performance, moving away from the tradition of seeing dance as an alienating spectacle to instead emphasize its immanent sociability. In its devotion to the body, This resting, patience proposes sensuality and dance as timeless and democratic technologies for deconstructing the world and projecting the continuous present into a lasting future that is essentially tender, passionate, and attentive.
The audience is invited to enter at 18:00. From that moment on, this group of people can come and go freely at any time during the play.
Loud music and sound are used. Occasionally, there may be sudden changes in volume.

Ewa Dziarnowska
is a dancer and choreographer based in Berlin. She works between performance, collaboration, and research. Her most recent projects—This resting, patience,https://4677684728466.com, and A Room With a Better View (Display Gallery x Berlin Art Week)—reflect her ongoing research into improvisation as a method and philosophy. Through attention to sensation, rhythm, and relationship, she investigates how movement can generate knowledge and resist the pressures of coherence and productivity. Her practice unfolds in real time, balancing precision and spontaneity, questioning the social and aesthetic frameworks through which dance is produced, witnessed, and circulated. Her work has been presented at venues and festivals such as Sophiensaele / Berlin Art Week (DE), Schwere Reiter / International Dance Festival Munich (DE), 3hd Festival / Creamcake (DE), Tanzquartier Wien / Rakete Festival (AT), Santarcangelo Festival (IT), MDT / My Wild Flag (SE), Moving in November (FI), Mind Eater (NO), Bit Teatergarasjen (NO), What You See Festival (NL), FLAM (NL), Gessnerallee / Backslash (CH), Ephemera Festival (PL), Scena Tańca Studio / Teatr Studio (PL), ms1 / Muzeum Sztuki (PL). As a performer, he has recently worked with Alex Baczyński-Jenkins, Michele Rizzo, Ofelia Jarl Ortega, and Enad Marouf.
