Stumbling. Luikelstren. Kuistrelen. Uikelstren.
A person stumbles sometimes. Over feet, a chair leg sometimes, over words or the rhythm of the day. Who, for instance, has never been late for an appointment (or hungry)? Who has never given bad advice?
Missteps. Getting up. Taking a fall. Swerving back. Losing balance. Toppling. Scrambling up. Slipping. Limping.
Salomé Mooij makes room for stumbling. She imitates it, thus staying ahead of it. She gets to know the stumble. That unpredictable balance breaker. She stumbles and wonders: what can we do with it? Where does the stumble become interesting?
On April 4 and 25, Salomé will stumble during the Night of Philosophy. On April 4 this will take place in Rotterdam, on April 25 you can stumble along in Amsterdam.
