Thanks to the Im_flieger team!
In their RESIDENCY@Im_flieger Olivia Hild and Lens Kühleitner research various processes of “thrusting”, which is a push that moves matter – a term borrowed from geology.
The work-in-progress investigates such thrusting within emotional and geological layers through movement and sound, following vibrations as their common source. The artists warmly invite to an open showing of their emerging choreographic sound performance duo.
