Fearsome Ass

“ ”

(Tomaž Grom)

A new installation approach to the sound material recorded during the closure due to the pandemic Covid-19 for the project On This Merry Day of Culture (2020). This time in the context of other forms of closure: artistic self-sufficiency, ideological emptiness and the political impotence of the present. Grom enters the tomb of VN20 with the rich sonority of 111 bodies still full of joy and life juices.
