Home ≠ Third Space
november 11th, 2021September 16, 2021 the article “Home ≠ Third Space” was published by APRIA. Using five poems originally written for the performance Blank Whispers, this text reflects on a situation in which we cannot immerse ourselves in dance and theatre. We are locked up in our homes, and even the privileged can no longer see the world as their home. Our actual homes are more multifunctional than ever, but for this reason, they cannot serve as the Third Space to experience the meaningful interactions the theatre provides. By re-reading and sharing these poems, I hope to revive such an experience. The article can be listened to and read here: Home ≠ Third Space.
In the video I created for Researchers@Work, I introduced the text to the audience of a panel discussion. You can watch the video here:
