Multimedia Poem for screen & Soprano (2020-23)
Duration: 30 min.
A multimedia poem narrated in four wonderful operatic arias. A woman under quarantine reflects on her relationship to different kinds of gender-based violence and the Women’s Movement. It is an journey into inner isolation.
The performance is focused on de-romanticizing violence against women, which played a major role in society then and now. A lively examination of opera becomes palpable and allows us to understand why operas remain topical and can also be seen from new perspectives, through the interdisciplinary dialogue of different arts.
