In a new collaborative work-in-progress, İrem Aydın and Elvan Tekin join forces to explore the embodied dimensions of complex emotional states such as longing, melancholy, heartbreak, and the experience of falling apart. Through an interplay of movement and text, the performance traces the lingering presence of absent people, places, and imagined futures.

Drawing on personal memories, fragmented narratives, and affective landscapes, the work-in-progress investigates how emotions inhabit the body, shape gestures, and leave traces across time and distance. Moving between intimacy and displacement, the performance unfolds as a poetic inquiry into loss, attachment, and the persistent desire for connection.
