Above our waters (2024)

“Above Our Waters” is a multimedia A/V live performance by Dhia Douss and Qusay Awad that follows the personal yet fictional and metaphorical depths of water. Combining modular synthesizers with field recordings and a video installation. The two Berlin based sound artists create an immersive audiovisual live performance that seeks to evokate moments of fluid, multidisciplinary storytelling while unfolding environments that arise beyond cultural heritage. In doing so, they develop a new language, speaking about the shared sea waters, myths of waters and fishers.

The performance will serve as the closing event for their 10-day artistic residency, held in collaboration with HOMRANE SUSTAINABLE LIVING.

R.I.G is an improvisation project born from a need for free expression through sound and performance. The trio, composed of Rami Harrabi, Ismael Lassoued and Ghassen Ben Brahim, found their first opportunity in the routines of live performance and used this opportunity to break away from these routines.

In improvisation, there are no mistakes, only missed opportunities. R.I.G explores these opportunities through repetition and accidents.
