DIE NACHT KURZ VOR DEN WӒLDERN

,

A theater project in Wien/Austria. Play by Bernard-Marie Koltès directed by Nicolas Dabelstein in Theater Drachengasse.
I was invited to do music/sounds for the performance. Later during the rehearsals we added video.

Very intensive work both in terms of the creative process itself and conditions for work. I was living in a flat above the theater that corresponded very well with the content of the play itself. Uninhabited, estranged, empty. Combined with a lack of social connections and freezing January in the streets of Wien, there was nothing else to do than work on the music.
Amazing experience..
