Pockethead is a one to one performance developed by Leen De Graeve. She’s been performing it in Brussels (Belgium), Cairo (Egypt), Barcelona (Spain), Beiroet (Lebanon), Rome (Italy) and the itinerary is yet to be continued. Leen invites the audience to enter her head. It is a sensitive journey through self-made objects, drawings, a personal library, and above all, through the mind and body of a young woman. This exploration is the start of an association-based conversation with the spectator.
