Zyg is an open
installation which can lead to the sensations and also risk. The
performer in improvisation can at his best offer the child a joint
exploration and together they experience time and space, hopefully in
a playful way. In the process with the performers we have emphasized
to prepare for being unprepared. Through physical exploration and
reflection the installation got significance for us who participated
in the process. Practitioners have saved their experiences in the
body's archive and with their archived experiences they now face the
youngest children. Zyg is a room filled with opportunities and where
an overriding goal is to offer the child a meaningful meeting. The
meaningfulness in this context relates to providing the child
interaction and response. Being together in experience, discovering
the layers and to lift the child's initiative up is stated
objectives. The open improvisation has its structure and it is always
an artistic intention behind each installation. In the meeting with
the child, the work completes and it gets its shape: new, unique and
different from the previous one, never the same as the next. The
performers must listen with all their senses in order to provide a
sensoric experience, at its best children's sounds and movements are
woven into the performer's interpretation of time and space. Other
times it's more difficult to create a good meeting for everyone. The
knowledge of the performer attached to such an open improvisational
form requires a lot and presence is the most important tool to carry
into this meeting. To be seen, heard and taken into exploration of
time and space can create the most beautiful moment, that is how we
want the child to experience Zyg.
