This record is the soundtrack to the performative operations performed by Lili Ullrich, Bergur Thomas Anderson, Ratri Notosudirdjo, Noëlle Lakshmi and Alex Chater at Roodkapje Rotterdam in September 2019. “The part-ambient, part-avant garde LP easily stands without the visual, flitting from the in-the-room immediacy of rehearsal recordings, synthesized drones and arpeggios, and an emphasis on the power of the human voice. - Bleep.com

Worlds Between Words
Exhibition / presentation
-
19-11-2021 t/m 16-01-2022
- Location: Showroom MAMA, Rotterdam
- The tales of the artists are rooted in migration, ancestry, and life after devastation. The labyrinth asks you to place yourself inside it, and by traveling between narratives, contemplate the vastness of the city landscape next to your own stories of belonging. Lifting these veils, we find languages emerge as pockets to these worlds quietly open.
