MurMurMure. 2014
Performance and theatrical display of disembodied musicians and performers in the Dar Si Said, an old handicrafts museum. It activates those rituals petrified in the museum's many vitrines, problematizing the role of museums in the context of North African oral und musical traditions. The work negotiates simultaneously the notion of entertainment as a commodity and the relationship between the human body and the architecture it frequents and inhabits.
