| Abstract | Three performances, three folded theoretical contexts, three slidings, three material metaphors. My aim is to place these in a theoretical context that facilitates an understanding of material metaphors, but also push them into unpredictable directions that I, as both performer and observer, cannot possibly follow - but the reader indeed might. I start by thinking of concepts as objects, and show how all metaphors operate within a specific metaphorical edifice that constrains meaning. This is illustrated with a performance I gave on ghosts and colonisation at the Copenhagen Royal Cast Collection. In section three, I move deeper in the fold, and think about objects as concepts, using paper manifolds at a performance at the Swedish Royal Academy of Music. Finally, in section four, I slide between matter and materiality, their differences and similarities, as a prelude to a performance on death and life, contract and fear, and Venice and water I gave at the Australasian Law, Literature and the Humanities conference in 2019. |
