Standing still. Stop for a moment. Taking time, looking at things for a long time, observing, breathing in, dis-covering, reflecting. 36 hours in slowness. Archipel brings slowness in Japan within the 36-hour SLOW event in the Concertgebouw in Bruges.

Hannah Van Eenooghe Concertgebouw Brugge organizes the 36-hour SLOW event in February. You get 36 hours of time to stand still. We walk and stop in a society that runs and takes a flight forward. Follow your intuition and forget about your clock: experience ‘time’ as ‘expensive’, enjoy maximum resources, move through the city in determined but slow movements and bring yourself into a trance through repetition. SLOW (36h) leads to a massage of the senses and – who knows – spiritual experiences. For once it is not the intention to attend as many concerts and events as possible.

Archipel contributes to this edition with a self-made production: a visual event zooming in on the slowness of the Japanese ancient culture. In 2018, 270 people travelled to Japan with Archipel. Through their eyes, images and objects were recorded of a culture, slowly entrenched through the centuries, in tradition and modernity.

Time: just stop at a haiku …
