DISCRIPTION

“Words” is a performance that researches time and movement, that is created in brain, and translated into movement in body,  by a simple game. I try to say as many words in a line, the next always starting with the last letter of the former one. I use both Finnish and English. I count all the words. I stop when I a) have to think too long, b) start with a wrong letter or c) say a word that I have used before.
