What I would like to propose within this text is an imaginary journey to three places: Amanda Piña’s Climatic Dances (2020), Katharina Joy Book’s and Ester Koncz’s Tornado Watch (2021) and Agata Siniarska’s Den (2022). These are places of complex topography – performances that were shown on particular stages, but also referred to and drew on the qualities of other locations. These are places produced by movement – movement of bodies, objects, sounds, rays of light, thoughts and imaginations. These are also places that do not exist at this very moment in the way they existed when bodies and objects moved through them while being perceived by the audience. But perhaps some of them will reappear; it’s all a matter of the right circumstances. From each of these places I learned something about what a place is when it ceases to be an abstract, humanistic idea of space. Every one of them produces a certain kind of ecognosis.
