In 1:1 Pernille Holden examined different ways to be visible and ambiguous in one's meeting with the world. Holden experiences that there are certain ways we want to present ourselves and other sides by us we don't want others to see. She worked on finding physical manifestations of the emotional states and further to transform these.

Holden examined physical terms such as power, force, vulnerability and vulgarity. Through recognising these in the form of positions, gestures or movement patterns she altered, deformed and transformed the different physical expressions.

Is there a long way between vulgarity and vulnerability? Can power be experienced as weak?

1:1 was an examination work regarding identity, being in constant flux and searching for stability in change.

1:1 by Pernille Holden was supported by The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (travel grant/performing arts).
