CERTAINLY UNCERTAIN is a solo lecture performance that moves between personal narrative and scientific research. A story about an individual journey, about actions, consequences and radical transformation that has been constantly evolving over the past two years. In the tradition of artists such as Xavier Le Roy, Yvonne Rainer and Andrea Fraser, Eva Meyer-Keller presents a format of performative autobiography that combines the idea of conceptual dance and lecture performance.

On the electrically charged terrain of neuroscience, the artist approaches the complex topic of perception from a personal point of view. The playful and interactive lecture performance mixes fact with fiction and scientific research with personal experience to understand how perception works. Is perception something that happens to us or something that we do? How does the brain know what we see? Is there a difference between perception and experience? What can we learn from our nervous system as a society and as individuals in times of crisis?

With the help of live DIY experiments, apparatuses made from household objects such as sugar cubes, melons and seemingly random gestures, Meyer-Keller constructs a complex choreography of thinking in relations. From the first single-celled organisms on the planet to complex nerve structures and the effects of this system on the artist's immediate experience.

At the surplus ends, unfinished stories and unanswered questions, CERTAINLY UNCERTAIN begins to lay out a performative narrative mosaic of fragile remnants, only to disarrange it again immediately afterwards.
