K3 DANCE PROJECT WITH YOUNG PEOPLE: RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW

What is the present? What if only the present matters? The moment of the performance, the moment of movement, the instant. Since September 2025, the young people in the dance project have been exploring the question of what exactly it means to be in the now. Inspired by visits to the Kunsthalle Hamburg, whose building bears the inscription “Here is the present,” the participants have explored the fleeting nature of the moment through techniques of dance and the visual arts. How does the moment become special? Can it be planned, or does it shine only through chance? RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW explores presence in the present, navigating between presence and absence, between fleeting movements and solid bodies.
