“Cindy Moorman’s art breaks through object-orientation. In her work, the encounter takes centre stage. The visual spectacle may be present, may be seen, but it plays a supporting role.” — Marli Huijer, philosopher
“The performance playfully sharpens the roles of performer, art professional and artwork, in an environment where seeing and being seen is the norm.” — Sanneke Huisman, curator
“She removes the noise and the clutter until an essence remains… fundamental structures become increasingly visible.” — Maaike Lauwaert, curator
“By bringing performers and audience together as representatives of the ‘We’, Moorman succeeds in powerfully visualising the complex phenomenon of group dynamics.” — Jakob Van Den Broucke, writer
“An ode to solidarity: without the collective, the individual would never have broken free.” — Lieneke Hulshof, curator
“The work invites participation, making the audience part of a collective choreography of symbols, light, and sound – until the ‘we’ simply emerges.” — Bob Witman, critic
“You see and hear how a group of people detaches from you, forms itself before your eyes, becomes a unity. Then the realisation dawns that, through their separation, you too are reshaped into a group… Rarely do you experience this so consciously as during a performance by Cindy Moorman.” — Richtje Reinsma, artist
“The uncertainty of connection stands almost in direct contrast to the certainty you create with your scripted gatherings.” — Noor Spanjer, journalist
“Stilled in time, very slow, very gradual. It was a sculpture, a sculptural work.” — Hanne Hagenaars, curator
