Ten Hands

HD video on loop, no audio, 3:55” variable dimensions

Ten Hands is a video choreography of five people of various ages, three women and two men. They look directly at the viewer. Alternately a head falls on a chest, two hands take the face and put it back upright. The head always falls and it is always put upright again. Due to the minimalist setting, the human condition is magnified monumentally, as unembellished as possible.

Roos van Geffen: “This work is about profound struggle. To try again and again, fail, find ones courage and start over. Whatever happens.”
