In their trilogy »Open Water«, Glitch AG explores the utopian potential of water in relation to our social coexistence across three works over three years. The relaxed performance »Liquid Bodies« marks the beginning of this series, in which four performers from Glitch AG form an aquatic community together with the audience, focusing on the theme of care. For water connects all bodies that carry water within them. Water remembers, stores, forgets, migrates, and circulates. With percussion and piano, aquaphone and liquids in and around us, we experience our watery connectedness. Water touches, bathes, permeates. We eat algae popcorn and linger, carry other bodies of water and responsibility for each other, become singing sirens, move together through space like oceanic swirls flexible in our identities, changeable, interpermeating, and empathetic.

Raha Emami Khansari, Eva-Maria Glitsch, Anna Hubner, and Christine Kristmann make up the Hamburg-based performance collective Glitch AG. Since 2016, they have been producing theater and dance performances, radio plays, participatory formats, and interventions in public spaces.
