WHISPERINGS:CIRCLE
2021
installation
‘Whisperings’ are sono-choreographic environments that intersect the whisper, that speech-act at the limits of audibility, with the urgency of unheard (or at least under-represented) perspectives, ideas and stories. Each instantiation of these environments perform critical whispers through various texts and instruments.
‘Whisperings:Circle’ is an intimate congregation of seven custom made horns that whisper seven texts, one on each day of the week. The whisperings ponder the etymological and astrological roots of the days of the week.
Indoor installation for the space ‘sign,CIAT’ of the Contemporary Institute for Art and Thought in Berlin, 30.8.2021-7.9.2021.
Durational performance installation during twilight from sunset to nightfall on Saturday 10.9.2022 at 19:33 – 21:35. Open Studio Night Gerichtshöfe Berlin.
