Jana De Kockere and Bjorn Floréal

“A SKELETON AND A FISHERMAN
This is a photograph of me
——— In the background there is a lake, And beyond that, some low hills
——— (the photograph was taken the day after I drowned)
——— I am in the lake, in the center of the picture, just under the surface
——— (from a poem by Margaret Atwood)
——— We cannot read the darkness. We cannot read it. It is the crack between the worlds in which a skeleton and a fisherman continuously disappear. 'A Skeleton and a Fisherman' is a performance by Jana De Kockere and Bjorn Floréal, inspired by a story told by Clarissa Pinkola Estés, an American poet and psychoanalyst and gatherer of ancient folk tales. Jana and Bjorn try to capture the alien in human relationships. It is what it is. And it's there to look at.”

Play and concept: Jana De Kockere, Bjorn Floréal.
Based on a text by Clarissa Pinkola Estés.
