“Restless Whirls” is a soap opera for a washing machine and 3 performers, a performative installation, a theatrical hallucination and a looped symphony of suds which explores dissociative experiences.This work aims to become a poignant exploration of detachment, resonating deeply with the complexities of our contemporary world, an era fraught with uncertainty and upheaval, where the constant barrage of information, disinformation and stimuli can often lead to a sense of alienation and disconnection.
