Abstract Intimacy is an experience to separate the history of the feelings from the cause. The main intention in the process of recording, translating and editing the interviews was to leave out the event itself and illuminate the history of experiences.To dissect a piece of mutual memory, taking out all clear references to the event and let different existing voices in the work shape the absence of the main event.

 

6 people were interviewed who experienced a specific event to talk about their memories and feelings from that specific day. The original interviews in Farsi were transcribed and translated into English and thereafter performed by 3 actors.
