i want to put down roots with barbed hooks
no hitting roots
holding roots
how does a body feel when it puts down roots, when no roots take hold, or when the roots are literally hit?
«wurzeln schlagen» explores the themes of origin and belonging through simple gestures, endurance and a purely physical approach.
grow roots with barbed hooks
to nestle in
to get stuck
or that something sticks to me
