An expressive work that explores the limits of cooperation and being together
A small gesture is an expressive work that explores the limits of cooperation and being together, on one square meter. Two men make a self-repeating attempt to optimally use the space they have at their disposal. It is this space they organise for themselves that makes their encounters ever closer and more intimate until they end upon a pile of tiles, just big enough to stand on together. Together and alone, they dig a way through the pile, in search of more space.
Mime collective VegeLijf attempts to show how supporting each other can be a small gesture and, at the same time, something great. It is a depiction of cohabitation in a reduced form. Having to deal with each other on the square meters where we all live. Moving around each other there, getting each other’s way, helping and letting each other down.
