When the body breaks down and nobody notices. Long COVID, burnout, chronic exhaustion: millions of people are running on empty, unable to feel – or unable to stop explaining why.
In his first solo piece, Sebastian Zuber combines dance and digital art to create a work about the abyss – and about what sustains us nonetheless: resilience and gratitude for a body that somehow carries on.
