​

MOTHER is a reflection on human interaction and connection in this globalized world and an attempt to merge the myriad of artistic media, perspectives and voices.  

​

In an immediate contact with the audience, Somalia Williamson explores the world from the perspective of a universal figure – the mother – in search of the reflection of pure unconditional love. After examining collective overlapping memories with fellow performers and makers, Alec De Bruyn, Gorik Elaut and Tijen Lawton, she composes a universal story about this entity of intertwined sensations, emotions and insights that binds us all.  

​

MOTHER will be shown as Work in Progress for the first time during WIPCOOP Antwerp in the Arenbergschouwburg on Tuesday 09 November 2021.
