the space between us

A piece about ancestral patterns of heartbreak

The space between us beschäftigt sich mit den überlieferten Mustern zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen – den unausgesprochenen Erzählungen, die sich über Generationen ziehen. Viele Liedtexte spiegeln Beziehungsmuster wider, die heute als toxisch gelten. Doch hilft es, sie einfach zu benennen? Dieses Stück beleuchtet die Ambivalenz von Liebe, Schmerz und Wachstum. Inspiriert von der Idee der Liebe als förderliche Kraft für die Individuation und überlieferten Texten unserer Ahnen untersucht das Stück, wie emotionale Muster über Generationen weitergegeben werden.
