This work is a collaboration between Ekin Idiman (Turkey) and Vera Korman (Israel) in the form of an audio-visual live performance. The structure of the work will be an orchestration of sound and visual projections in the form of a theater play.

Carefully
Lida Krul
Installation
Fear, oppression and the longing for safety are themes in the installation entitled: 'Carefully'.
Pictures, which are for everyone identifiable, will travel very slowly through a transporting, looping and destroying route through a projector. This demolition is the result of a motor which is stabbing the needle in a very careful and - at the same time - irreversible way through the pictures.

Candle song
Diana Band- Wonjung Shin & Dooho Yi
Installation
"Candle Song" is an object and a platform for synthesis space. It invites you to see the sound, touch rhythm and listen to the color.

Paper-gut
Diana Band- Wonjung Shin & Dooho Yi
Performance
A ritual is a performance in order to make a bridge between this physical world and the other world. At the moment, a body of a performer plays role as mediation. The body can be everything temporary. The ultimate aim of a ritual is perfect communication between bodies, spaces, and time. Which shape is the sound of fire? Which kind of color is it? Which kind of sound color is angry fire? Is fire immaterial?
“So, like a forgotten fire, a childhood can always flare up again within us.” - Gaston Bachelard

Three Programs: Subject and Object, Rituals and Ghosts, Evolution/Revolution

1) Subjects and Objects looks at works which address the individual as both subject and object of the gaze, of scientific enquiry and biological necessity, of the material expectations of beauty, and as objectified by the material traces of individual histories.
