Time starts to breathe. Sand moves, bodies and objects listen, and the stage becomes a living landscape. In RAUM · ZEIT (Space · Time), Tobias Piero Dohm opens a world that stretches the interplay between body, object and materiality to its limit. A collection of white globes spin, hang, roll, and float through space like planetary systems. Sand spills from unexpected sources, creating ever changing miniature landscapes. Material is not just represented but activated - until it begins to speak its own language.
The performer moves through this environment not by controlling it, but by listening. Between precision and chance, calm and tension, images appear that feel simple yet powerful, poetic and surprising. Live composed soundscapes by Fabian Laute, using modular synthesizers weave deep frequencies and resonant textures into the vibrating space, responding to the movements and material.
In a time of constant acceleration, noise, and sensory overload, RAUM · ZEIT invites the audience into a shared pause - It creates a space to connect with the environment and feel time differently: slower, wider, and more open.
