What is a home? What remains when it is gone? What becomes of it when you can no longer be there with those who made you feel that you are at home?

In My Home / No Home (Mein Zuhause, Kein Zuhause), Nazareth Panadero and Michael Strecker draw on their years at Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch to explore this question through movement, text, and sound. Memory is not reconstructed—it shifts, lives, and unfolds in bodies, images, and music.

The work follows a series of questions: about the past, about what endures, and about what changes. The duet traces closeness and distance, shared histories, and the ways we carry a home within us, even when it cannot be fixed in place.

My Home, No Home is both a reflection and a living space—a home in motion, a dialogue between presence and absence, intimacy and separation.
