Vasiliki Riala performing ‘Humming’, July 2017.
The audience activated the performance by reading instructions based on awareness of the self, through a continuous movement of the body. While the audience had the option to choose various actions, the performers decided the duration and intensity of each action over the course of 24 hours.
