Corpus & Punishment
John Hanse, Henrik Bromander, Sofia Findahl, Jonas Åkesson, Jasser Hetait, Sofia Snahr
November 5th - November 20th
Is there any learning in oppression? The performance Corpus & Punishment examines the mechanics of state violence. It is a pedagogical arrangement where the performers alongside with the audience reenact a chain of possible situations. These situations create a dystopian and yet fully possible idea of a future where a democratic elected party uses the state apparatus to pursue and neutralize its dissidents. The audience will examine the position of the dissidents by reenacting interrogations, isolation and the discursive power to change what is right or wrong.

Returning the Ear
Tim Shaw & Jacek Smolicki
November 26th - December 2nd
‘Returning the Ear’ is an on-going collaboration between Tim Shaw and Jacek Smolicki. It is a particular method for attending to, archiving and mediating space through an array of sonic interventions and on-site experiments. If traditionally the experience and documentation of place has been performed through visual or textual means, the approach of the artists attempts to bring attention to practices of listening and audio-recording. 'Returning the Ear' is about questioning and testing diverse natures of listening and recording through performative walks within public space, in both urban and rural environments.
