MONUMENT 0.7: M/OTHERS (2019)

Eszter Salamon is one of the most renowned Hungarian-born choreographers and dancer-performers working internationally. Her work often explores female subjectivities, feminist genealogies, and multi-generational relationships. M/OTHERS delves into the mother-daughter relationship, opening up an intersubjective temporality through modalities of action, feeling, and perception. It gives rise to a singular space marked by traces and states of conjoining. This is the second time Salamon has invited her mother to perform with her. Their duet becomes a site for empathy, care, and compassion—an intimate dialogue that, through sensual attentiveness, experiments with a poetic weaving of shifting meanings. Their shared presence, and the ongoing reconfiguration of their bodily entanglement, unfolds as a process of undoing and redoing identity—generating a moment of co-emergence: a state of being, being-with, and witnessing a time-space beyond identity.

Salamon uses choreography as an activating and organizing force, bridging various media such as image, sound, music, text, voice, bodily movement, and action. Her works evolve across diverse formats, aesthetics, methodologies, and poetics, drawing on a broad spectrum of expressive forms.
