Selected as one of 30 projects for the 500th anniversary of the Reformation,
this performance explored the theme of fear—its presence in our lives and how we experience it.
Created by a trio consisting of one musician and two performers, the piece was developed through a process of extensive research. Over 20 interviews were conducted with a diverse range of individuals,
delving into both common and unique fears.
The bodily sensations described in these interviews were transformed into movements,
while the voices were integrated into the soundscape, which also featured the live heartbeat of the performers.
The piece was performed in over 20 public spaces across Zurich throughout the summer (June-September 2018).
Each performance was unique, blending with the surrounding environment and evolving through the stories of the local places and people.
