In 'Going once...', micro-choreographies are performed one final time at the moment of their transfer to a new owner. Each movement is executed with care, precision, and presence - fully aware this will be its last public appearance.
After this performance, the choreography disappears from the artist's repertoire and lives on solely through its collector. It may only be performed again at their explicit request, included in the agreement of transfer. 'Going once...' explores authorship, ephemerality and the value of movement as a singular and unrepeatable act.
