about the travel

Armenia

In the summer of 2013, I traveled again for 6 weeks to Armenia. This time to an artist residence along with Laureline Koenig at ACOS. Our project included 13 interviews on the Epic David of Sassun and the history of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh.
We talked to artists, architects and scientists.
In addition, the premiere of the piece in the building of Nanor Petrosian and me happened and various performances with Vardan Harutyunyan and Laureline Koenig in Gyumri and in a by homeless inhabited house ruin in Yerevan.
Together with Laureline Koenig I carried out the workshop vocal improvisation and listening, with students in Gyumri, Armenia and employees – nurses and physiotherapists in Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh. In addition to artistic parts, this workshop includes many aspects for the awareness of its own situation and strengthening resilience.
