Sirenen

Performance / Sound Choreography

What has been magnified through the „corona-crisis“? What has become louder that was barely noticeable before? For which longings, which needs, which utopias are the experiences of the pandemic functioning as an amplifier? We asked these questions to mothers and fathers, educators, nursing staff, domestic helpers and other people who do badly paid/unpaid care-work in Vienna. An unusual and new form of political speech explores the megaphones’ tonal, rhythmic and sculptural potentials.
