Performed and choreographed by Lisa Laurent, this solo performance is a choreography of grief. Semi-nude and accompanied only by a small table and a microphone, Laurent gives herself over to inconsolable lamentations: her movements are laboured, as if mired in her own tears, and each attempt to regain composure falters. The piece interrogates vulnerability and the grotesque dimensions of sadness, gradually collapsing the distance between performer and audience to create a space where private fragility can be looked at and shared.

TEDxGeneva’s 2026 edition examines the theme “Undo” — a critical investigation of what to unmake in order to choose differently. The programme explores dismantling habits, inherited systems and rules, assumptions, cultural speed and informational noise. Through short talks and reflective sessions, speakers and facilitators will investigate practical and conceptual strategies for simplifying, reframing and recalibrating collective practices. Participants are invited to consider pathways for intentional change and to critically assess which structures should be kept, adapted or undone.
