In Ohne Titel 3 Ania Nowak wonders about ways of giving up our attachment to prescribed categories and binary oppositions, such as thought/feeling, matter/emotion, pleasure/pain, private/common, erudite/popular, etc. Through her performance, Nowak approaches disciplines of consent and rhythms of anger in late capitalism. She studies language, kiss and breath as means of communication. Collaborators: Dusty Whistles, Jayson Patterson, Agata Siniarska, Ola Osowicz.
