DIRECT TO ARTIST

Dates: 6:30pm Fridays 2nd - 16th April

Utterings+++ is a series of three activations of the work developed by Utterings in the format of a performative workshop.

Participants (up to 6) are invited to join, during 90 minutes, the members of the group in order to explore together dynamics of listening and improvising through voiced sound(s) as a means to weave a web of interrelated expressions in a communication system. The workshops will be guided and each one culminating in a 30minute public performance

ANDANCONNERDERCU. Utterings is a networked performance and research group composed of Annie Abrahams (FR), Daniel Pinheiro (PT), Constança Carvalho Homem (PT), Curt Cloninger (US), Nerina Cocchi (BE) and Derek Piotr (US). Their work is a collaborative attempt to go beyond the borders and closures created by languages, opening up and transgressing them in a performance that probes meaning through pre-verbal communication and formerly un-inhabited expressions. The very first iteration of Utterings was hosted by Audioblast #8, APO-33 (Nantes, FR) in February 2020. They have been performing regularly ever since in festivals such as the Network Music Festival and STWST48x6 MORE LESS.
