Project "Goosebumps" is a reflection on geopolitical affiliation and collective identity onto corporeal level of sensing temperature and water. The local lakes tell a story of capitalistic desires for tropical heat (and polish cold-water complex), as well as environmental recreation choices (which exclude high-emission flights). In new pandemic reality, in tourism debris I am looking for new qualities in body and it’s relation to local environment. I organized a cycle of body movement workshop (cooperation; Sonia Borkowicz, Paweł Kubiak) on Strzeszynek Lake, where we were collectively exploring the temperature of our bodies in relation to water, sand, stones, and we tried to transfer it into movement qualities. During the project I also made the publication (cooperation: Grigory Popov) – zine, containing photos from holidays on Strzeszynek Lake and also multi-authors text written together with Gaja Karolczak and Bartosz Mroczkowski .For the workshop I have built also a scenography, using recycled materials – failed prints of holidays advertisements.
