PERCEPTION OF DIFFERENCE

Medium: Performance
Duration: 1 hour
Year: 2019
Location: HfBK Dresden
Participants: Visitors invited through acquaintances to maintain Heiser’s anonymity,
photographer: Yuni Chung
assistant: Nam Ju Lee.

Sequence: Visitors ascend a long staircase to a corridor between two rooms. Two assistants regulate entry—only one visitor enters at a time. On the right-hand door, the rules are projected: She sits naked in darkness, bent forward on a stool. You may touch her back, shoulder, or head for two minutes, then silently observe how her energy shifts. When time is up, you are guided to the second room. Write your impressions, place them in a box, and have a drink before exiting through another door.
