BIFPA 26 - Artist lecture with Thomas Reul

Thomas Reul is interested in the potential arising from the encounter of different elements. He explorers this collaborative performance approach also in duo or group performances. The challenge is to find a form of communication that respects and retains the individual rhythms, intentions and perceptions in a situation.
Thomas lives and works in Cologne. He is a performer, organiser of various projects and events, performance documentary photographer and an active member of PAE Aktionslabor eV. since 2015. His work has been shown in Asia, Europe and South America.

"Through interaction and dialogue with materials and others, I try to open up new spaces for thoughts and feelings in order to transcend the perceived boundaries. In particular, I use familiar perceptual experiences as well as everyday materials and my body to initiate and continue these conversations. The movements and encounters encourage leaving the potentials as open as possible in all directions of a multi-dimensional space. In this process, the organisation of events also serves to expand the artistic perspectives and strategy of action.“
