49 days

dance
performance
05—06.04.2024

In 49 days, the collective XENOMETOK’s first music and dance performance, an ensemble of four protagonists takes us on a journey through the memories of three sisters. They find themselves in a space detached from time - between a lon­ging for this world and an apparent beyond - in order to fight their way out together and in turmoil.

With delicately arranged elements of electronic music, experimental vocals and moving images, 49 days creates a fictional alterna­tive world. It tells of the movements and renunciations of previ­ous generations and of the passing on of centuries-old Tibetan rituals, which were consciously maintained by parents and become continuously entrenched in the memory and everyday life of their descendants.

These memories and customs are activated and reinterpreted, not only bridging the indivi­dual and collective past, but transforming into celebratory experiences of a communal present. 

XENOMETOK is a transdisciplinary collaboration between singer Yesh, artist Valentina Demicheli and Tibet activist Paelden Tam­nyen. Thematically, the collective moves in the field of tension between reappropriation and Asian foreign and self-perception.
