Walking slowly. There was silence and for a moment there was a sound from nowhere. She looked around. Trying to fill her courage slowly then a little confidently. Looking far ahead. Jumping haphazardly, moving irregularly, reaching for something and then falling silent.

This performance is both an exploration and a revisit of Flying Balloons Puppet's Pongo Abelli, which was first performed in Helutrans in April 2019 as well as during the 2019 George Town Festival. Pongo then transformed into a video performance during the pandemic titled Unknown Territory. In 2025, he came back within a space where he imagined and experienced, not only as the main subject but part of a complex living space. Pongo becomes one last artifact, with the dystopian space displaying a world with disorder: the space, the subject, whatever is in it.
