Spectator is a video-installation, researching the act of seeing and being seen. At Winternights Sam Scheuermann will try to captivate, twist and mirror our gaze by slowing down the image. In a construction of eyes, lenses and projections, positioned in different locations at the festival site, she is searching for a genuine connection between spectator and performer, throughout all media. In an attempt to create a togetherness we only know from theatre, in the here and now, in a shared space and time, we’re looking at another.

The presentation at Winternights was a first research for this installation.
