What does the scream know? What kind of knowledge, social relations, cultural codes and constructs are embedded in how we listen and hear a scream. What kind of body supports a certain voice, a scream, and how movement articulation parallels the linguistic one - in its social as well as artistic value. I have produced Screaming series as series of short solos, where I mainly react to the growing need and trend for artists’ articulation, if not hyper-articulation about their own work as a way of legitimising their artistic practice.
Screaming series focus on exploration how to engage differently, exploring the materiality of our language instead of only its semantic value. I took the frustration of the impotency to produce meaningful speech nowadays as a serious strategy and explored what it means to insist on producing an ineffective voice.
