Reportable Portraits is not merely a performance about something or in any specific form. More than any topic it follows a rhizomatic net of resonances and traces, its agglomerations and loose endings. It's a piece that addresses the gaze into the inside; a piece that trusts in the performers. Towards an inefficiency that has no need to alienate anything. The link lies in the conceptual and its interest in the small things. It places an open space before any result, it drives the individual into proximity, clues the sound into the notebooks, encounters the political in an undemonstrative mode. It is like a sound inhabiting a bodiless space, where a dramaturgy of the simultaneous emerges out of judgmental notions of too much or not at all.
