ABOUT ABOUT

Pillow Talk : A 4 day Intensive ( 90 minutes per session) November 7,8,14 and 15 from 12-1:30 ET.

We are in quarantine, our life takes place within our 4 walls. Our World has become very small. It is no longer much larger than our apartment. From now on this is our workplace, our leisure room, our fitness studio, our wellness oasis, our recreation area and our retreat. There is no outside anymore, it is forbidden as a habitat. Social contact is reduced to a minimum, physical distance is the order of the day. We are forced to invent a new world and a new way of life in our most familiar surroundings. We are thrown back at ourselves. When this will end nobody knows. The world as we have known it only exists in our memories and on our screens.
Let's face this surreal situation paradoxically.


In our small apartment world, the bedroom is the most private, intimate place which only very select people are allowed to enter and inhabit.

Let's get intimate from a distance, let's go to bed with each other, let's virtually reveal bedroom secrets, listen to what's whispered only in bed, and let's experience things together that we've never experienced in our bedrooms. Very close and close together. Inspired by “The Bed” by Gerit Scholz and Carina Steger
