Undecidable Question
In search of the syntax of a new future, the artists Nikolina, Goran Sergej and Priska Pia Pristaš lead small groups of audience members through investigations into unsolvable questions of the past and traces of the present.
The first part of the trilogy, “Myth Interrupted”, dissects historical moments of collective will through a poetic lecture and interrogates competing visions of ‘best possible worlds’.
“They Called Them Footprints” explores gestures of togetherness through choreography and drawing, invoking voices from the future. „...to forge a swimmable path through the snow... “ uses the language of a nursery rhyme to imagine a horizonless landscape. Words condense here into unexpected connections — into sonic “caverns with the strangest corridors“ (Walter Benjamin).
