Stuck in a position of indecision a woman becomes increasingly aware of her body in the space, observing her apartment as an extension of herself. “At The Spot Where I Find Myself” is an assemblage of memories, experiences and projections giving you an intimate glimpse into the artist’s world and the characters she has met along the way. Collaborating with Belgian multi-disciplinary fashion artist Tom van der Borght for the clothing this concert is intimate, uncomfortable, unsettling, introspective, humorous, and delicate, with spoken word, sound, imagery and performance running throughout.

Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, May 31, 2024

Especially for Muziekgebouw, Geneviève performs At The Spot Where I Find Myself alongside an outstanding band of top musicians such as Andy Moor, John Dikeman, Laura Polence, and Henning Luther. Together, they create a unique blend of concert and performance, intertwining spoken word, visual art, rock, free improvisation, and electronic music.

Geneviève challenges the audience in the venue to explore their own safe spaces, the places where they can express their emotions, find protection, and disappear for a while.

REVIEWS

“The ability to mirror the abstraction of the initial questions show a loud and clear struggle with the possible answer. The strongest are the occasional poetic phrases that she occasionally echoes through the room. Sentences that always feel like the beginning or the end of a new chapter. Phrases that make us wonder who we are in this common scenario, such as ‘Everyday this home soaks in my state’ or ‘Have I arrived now? Can I breathe with this space now?’. There is a disarming quality to these moments that, ……..seem to capture a sense of self.”
