“It is a cliché, yet a truth, that life is constituted by its own end.” In embracing this paradox, mortality emerges not as confinement, but as liberation, a reminder that the body is not a prison for the spirit, but its vessel for being.
In her solo performance After All, Edinburgh-based French dance-theatre artist Solène Weinachter reflects on the human condition through dance, storytelling, and humour, asking: What happens in the end? The morning after her Kolkata performance, she invites audiences to join her for The Body as Home, a participatory, salon-style workshop that transforms those questions into shared exploration.
Through movement, conversation, and somatic inquiry, participants will reflect on how the body becomes a site of memory, mortality, and meaning, a home we inhabit and eventually leave. Set against the backdrop of TRI’s spring 2025 exhibition HOME?! বাড়ি ঘর گھر, the session offers a space to encounter intimacy and belonging through embodied experience, inviting presence as a form of understanding.
