Reviews:
Head With Many Thoughts, at the Contemporary Art Centre, is curated from an open call that attracted more than 600 proposals. The highlight is a large-scale video titled From Mother to Daughter, a choreographed series of performances by eight real families from different backgrounds on the theme of generational chains and interdependence. The project was devised by Lithuanian film-maker Vytautas Puidokas and Finnish choreographer Maria Saivosalmi. The distinction between media seem unimportant, the barriers between performance, theatre, literature and art an opportunity rather than an obstacle. We could learn from that.
