NICA presents: Sonae & Trees SUMMER

Multimedia-Installation - kein Einlass nach Beginn der Vorstellung

SUMMER is a collaborative audio-visual work by composer and producer Sonae and video artist Jennifer Trees. Tickets for the walk-through multimedia installation can be purchased for 7pm, 8pm and 9pm.

Artists Sonae and Jennifer Trees will be in attendance.

Climate change today poses an imminent threat to life on our planet. SUMMER stages a revealing confrontation with this provocative truth in a floor-to-ceiling A/V installation consisting of two screens placed opposite each other; the audience is positioned between them. The installation creates a space in which to feel honest, perhaps difficult emotions such as fear for the environment and grief for our changed planet. Or to indulge in denial, because the installation also offers the possibility to close one's eyes. The two screens show different perspectives. In this way, SUMMER places its audience at the center of the problem, forcing them to make a decision at that moment and highlighting their respective active roles in the current climate crisis.

SUMMER was produced with the support of NICA Artist Developmen tand the European Centre for Jazz and Contemporary Music at Stadtgarten Cologne. Sonae's eponymous album will be released on 04.10.2021 by LAAPS.
