In parallel to the performances of "Field Works-hotel" at the Maritim Hotel Gelsenkirchen from February 19 to 22, Heine Avdal and Yukiko Shinozaki will be working on their new creation "distant voices" (working title) during a one week-residency at PACT Zollverein.

At the end of the week, on Friday February 21, they will open up the creative process and share their first thoughts with the public in the foyer of the house, while exchanging some performative actions and reflections. They will be looking for ways to break out of the normal foyer-setting, by putting all spatial, physical and behavioral relationships between audience members and performers into question.

“distant voices” (working title) will have its premiere in the fall of 2014.
