Patrzeć i nie widzieć, a może nie patrząc zobaczyć
Looking without Seeing, or Perhaps Seeing without Looking

Summary/Abstract: Karolina Habryło reviews Weronika Murek’s Girls directed by Małgorzata Wdowik (STUDIO Gallery Theater in Warsaw, premiere: 10.04.2017). The author lists a range of concerns about the five girls’ involvement in this project. She describes the space in detail, the relationship between the stage and the audience, and the emotions accompanying the performance: mainly curiosity and disquiet, in her opinion. Habryło suggests that Marta Ziółek’s choreography perfectly illustrates the girls’ balancing act “between attempts to make contact with one’s own body, understanding and learning about it, and submitting to others’ objectifying gaze, replicating poses and gestures that might be attractive."
