“Co-natural” by Alexandra Pirici (Kunstenfestivaldesarts)

A hologram of a man in a pyramid made of black net. A man in flesh (39 yrs, 1,7 m, 72 kg, as he tells us) sitting on a lighted podium. They have an almost duet – the hologram repeating the same sequences, the man in flesh mostly watching him, sometimes moving as if following the hologram. “Co-natural” is a durational peace in a museum, so what's described here is an extract, the last 40 minutes of the performance (so the photo is misleading in that sense). But it still is a performance about inhabiting the space together, even if the bodies are not all present in the common sense. “Co-natural” is a meditation on existence and hence draws you in (or not), depending on how much you are willing to ponder on the subject (or whether you find it a waste of time).
