Sara Persico and Mika Oki present an adventurous audiovisual collaboration inspired by the former’s recent album, featuring field recordings from the experimental concrete theatre by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer in Tripoli, Lebanon. This impressive dome structure, envisioned for social integration, was abandoned during Lebanon’s civil war and later scarred by military use. Their project, Sphaîra, aims to transpose the unique spatial, sonic and lighting effects of the dome to create an atmosphere suitable for deep contemplation.
Co-curated with Terraforma at OPENLESS by Berlin Atonal.
