Concert installation »Blitzdorf« by Bnaya Halperin-Kaddari in Berlin
15. October 2018
As part of the exhibition »Seven Walks in and around Blitzdorf« by Bnaya Halperin-Kaddari, David Chaki and Ido Gordon, the Zafraan Ensemble presents its concert installation »Blitzdorf« on 31 October 2018 at the gallery Archive Books Berlin.
Navigating through a repressed geography, a sounding continuum tries to bridge across silent points on the map, its holes. Field recordings and sound walks from Israel-Palestine are woven with music for new instruments, in an attempt to modulate ones relation to the territory. Ghosts from the 1948 war resonate and re-activate the sonic environment in a counterpoint to the absence.
