Performance, 2008
Esther Salmona and Thierry Fournier – Series of performances Outside Lectures (Conferences du dehors)
The actress reaches artist Esther Salmona by cellphone. Esther complies with a protocol which consists in do not change anything in her daily schedule and answer the phonecall whatever her activity may be at the time. A few words are exchanged: Esther talks without pause her immediate sensations and perceptions about the situation she’s experiencing. Her voice is retransmitted through a loudspeaker. And so the dialogue echoes the actress activity: movements, questions, bonds between the acting space and the space of the other talking.
