A project that is more of a performance art laboratory than a finite, clearly defined work. In making Transfer, we wereinspired by activities referring to behavioural theory. In the course of work we combined a study of human behaviour with the discoveries of contemporary theatre and body performance

“According to Walter Hilsbecher, a human being often has had enough of the tragic fate anddoes not find meaning in this perspective, thus beginning to view life as absurd. This is what the modern man is like – he lacks the patience to endure the tragedy of his existence, so he rebels, expressing dissatisfaction with himself and the world. The rebellion is absurd, because it is connected with an awareness of one’s own impotence, it does not lead anywhere, cannotchange anything – it is just a manifestation of helplessness. The absurdity here involves also severing the ties with the absolute order. Since the tragic existence appears as devoid of meaning, since human suffering and spiritual dilemmas cannot be justified, since there is nothing at the end of this torment, it seems all the more absurd to thrash desperately and try to oppose the course of things.”
