The Exit Project is an invitation to step into a shared space of listening, reflection, and dialogue. In a concert-discussion format, it traces the stark landscapes of polarization that divide our world and asks how we might begin to imagine a way through. Music and poetry become our guides, offering moments of stillness where understanding can take root.
Through four original compositions for cello, Kathleen Balfe leads us on a journey: from the raw, unsettling extremes of polarization, to the quiet, everyday ways it seeps into our lives. The music interwoven with voice, electronics, and video, gradually opens into gestures of possibility—sketches of bridges, fragile but real, pointing toward connection. The fleeting, light-bound works of Gabriel Roca will accompany this path, dissolving and re-forming like reflections of our own shifting perspectives.
The performance does not end with the final note. It continues in the audience—through words spoken, silences shared, and impressions written down. These responses, offered freely, may find new life on Proyecto Exit’s Instagram, carrying the conversation outward, like ripples widening across water.
