The Happening ACT (Apples, Crickets, Time) explores the interconnectedness of food, community, and ecological awareness through the symbolic act of cutting and sharing an apple, inviting active participation from the audience. Inspired by Rirkrit Tiravanija’s practices, the performance uses the apple as a representation of local production and sustainability, encouraging reflection on mindful food consumption and its environmental impacts. The experience is set to the ambient sound of crickets, which evokes natural rhythms and serves as a gentle contrast to the rapid pace of modern life, creating a reflective space centred on time, nature, and social connections. This participatory approach strengthens the audience’s connection with nature, community, and core human interactions, highlighting the importance of slowness, presence, and shared experiences.
