A picnic on the edge of the night, a temporary bivouac for nocturnal storytelling. Interweaving research around the gesture of walking and nomadism with the theme of dwelling lightly in public spaces, this site-specific work by DOM- invites the audience to a collective exercise in rest and suspension.

When night falls, clocks stop, perception stretches, the landscape emanates indecipherable messages, languid like the heat rising from the ground as moisture descends from the sky and tree trunks. Muslin garments settle on the grass and dark rocks, someone walks away. Nature then reveals itself in its full seductive power, calling the bodies to itself, inviting them to pause and lose themselves, issuing an irresistible call to go beyond, to cross the threshold between dream and wakefulness. A cry at the edge of an experience from which one does not return – or, if one does return, does not have the words to recount it.
