On the Verge of Vertigo

Format /

Stage /

To be on the verge of something is to be at a place where something is about to begin and something else is about to end. When we experience the whirling sensation of vertigo we lose our balance. On the verge of vertigo, we nearly lose our equilibrium. The temptation of whirling brings us close to this loss, and yet it doesn’t bring us quite there. On the verge of vertigo, you sense stability and imbalance at the same time, and yet you have neither of them. What if this becomes the way we live our lives, an ambivalence in which culture is practiced and identity produced?

The ALMOSTREAL team was invited by Pages Magazine to make a joint contribution that would reflect on the implications of ALMOSTREAL as an experimental arts funding project for the 5th issue 'On the Verge of Vertigo' of Pages magazine. The process of collectively writing this article turned out to be an incisive moment of reflection on the developments of ALMOSTREAL.

Pages Magazine is a bilingual (Farsi & English) magazine, and platform for exchange, dialogue and projects by artists and writers from Iran and elsewhere.
