Image 1:
- In my dream I water the life, life is a plante, I organise things with words. I look at the world and I’m afraid- afraid to be like in the song of david Byrne: “I work and I dance and I sleep and Im dead”
-
Image 2:
- In my dream/ performance I water the things-look!
- life grows!
-
Image 3:
- There is a boiling machine and I call this the science

Image 4:
- I poor water on the floor and it makes an ocean

Image 5:
- It is a children game, the audience understands that well
-
Image 6:
- I talk to the child in them: “the child is the mother of the person”

Image 1:
- It makes smoke
- no, this are the dreams our lives are made of
-
Image 2:
- We are such stuff as dreams are made on
- and our little life is rounded with a sleep.'
-
Image 3:
- I nourish the things of the dream
- the bottle is the energy, the glass the mechanism
- I nourish the mechanism with energy
-
Image 4:
- on the panel I write things that I will do, this is the organization
-
Image 5:
- me and the mechanic, it is the necessity

Image 1:
- I started to do this because I was suffering
- I created this glass character like a number
-
Image 2:
- it’s a show but it’s also true
- we have traveled a lot with the glass but always in the dream
-
Image 3:
- I show what is in me like the glass is bending my neck
-
Image 4:
- I only present question I ask myself, no answers unfortunaltly
-
Image 5:
- we speak of the glass half full or half empty, and of the drop that makes the vase overflow, in english you say “the straw that broke the camel's back” but it doesn’t work in the context
- what does it do when the glass overflow for a long time?
-
Image 6:
- I overflow myself, I make myself overflow. It quiets me when the overflow lasts, when it don't stay at the limit of capacity but it really overflows.

Image 1:
- I water the plant with my overflow
- don’t over do it with the poesy!
-
Image 2:
- I shake and shaking makes the glass move. At the time I didn’t know it but now we speak of trauma and catharsis
- and everybody is afraid that the glass falls
-
Image 3:
- when the glass moves it changes quite a bit the perspective
- i don’t see my feet anymore
- I see people perpendicularly
-
Image 4:
- the glass is like a new organe
-
Image 5:
- an organe that organises nothing but that constrains only
-
Image 6:
- it’s almost more difficult to do things when you see on the side that when you see your feet
- I through the science on the life
-
