In Other Words
Sound Poetry Performance
Created as part of the exhibition and the symposium
“Konkrete Poesie und So” / kunsthaus muerz (Mürzzuschlag, AT)
curator : Sabine Kienzer
"In Other Words" is a sung, danced and spoken performance of multilingual poetry, bordering on sound poetry. It is an experiment around the tangibility of words, an attempt to emphasize the tension between the meaning of what is said in other words and the actual reality of the words - their sensuality, their embodiment through movement and voice, and their power, create their own stories through the power of interaction.
It's a game about translatability and non-translatability of language, meaning and absurdity.
