Brener and Imara fill their time with frenetic activity at home during the Corona pandemic. As lockdown rules are eased they brave it and go outside. It’s scary though, and they return rapidly to the virtual cocoon they’ve become used to. Beyond the immediate time-frame in which it’s set, Y&I Go Outside speaks to the increasing recession of human life from nature to the artificial and also questions what is more real, an unconnected ‘natural’ life, or connectedness via the virtual.

During lockdown Imara made regular window appearances to post as looped videos on Instagram. Imitating the theatre that we couldn’t perform in or attend, these works express the inherent trapped-ness of lockdown. Here the appearances are combined, their natural soundtracks making a jerky music, and imitating a gig that couldn’t happen live.
