Tender Absence 2020

The corona pandemic has greatly changed our interactions with other people. We avoid each other and refrain from forms of expression that usually require coming together. With Tender Absence, we have created a space for artistic experiments that test forms of intimacy in the digital realm.

Info Contributors

Tender Absence is a platform for the performing arts in digital spaces. During the "second wave" of the Corona pandemic and the limited possibilities to make performing arts visible, we have been concerned with how we can enable artistic and social experiences despite physical distance. For this purpose, we have launched and curated the platform to draw attention to the social potential of cultural events on the internet.

Tender Absence brings together artists from all over the world to create intimate encounters online. Starting at the end of November 2020 with "lone|some", a format for short performative and social experiments for a small audience, we have invited people on a journey to discover the unknown of digital intimacy through performing arts.

Performances of the first edition lone|some 2020:

"Behind your Eyeballs" by Salma Said and Miriam Coretta Schulte

"Kathe" by Vishal Kumaraswamy

"Time-travel into the time of slowness" by Catalina Insignares and Carolina Mendonça
