Kripa and Eva started their conversations through e-mail exchange. Kripa was in Kathmandu, Eva in Amsterdam.
They wrote to eachother about their common interest in how people related to the open spaces that where used as a home base during the earthquake. The focus point was on what kind of psychological effect this has. A social study in which they tried to understand and feel.
They started their performance research from the open field (Ratna Park, Kathmandu) 27°42'09.2"N 85°18'53.8"E
Kripa used this open space as a home to escape the insecurity of her own home during the earthquake of 5 years ago.
“Following every aftershick, most of us would rush ou to an open space to find a safer ground, I went to Ratna Park, it was the closest” - Kripa
This open field is a large rectangle, which they translated, into a symbolic yellow rectangle.
“What was inside became outside”- Kripa
When they were together in Kathmandu the symbolic yellow rectangle become a yellow tarp. A material that is often used in Kathmanu as protection. They went out and performed various performances on this yellow tarp to feel and research the psychological side of how an open space influences his people.
How is what happened five years ago still visible?
