Can we speak with song?
The artist will sing to one person at a time, sitting on opposite chairs, while the rest of the audience listens. Anyone is welcome to sit on the chair as it becomes free. The listener can choose to sing back to the artist, in any language. Tango Therapy is an intimate and personal exchange of songs, without technology or amplification. Understanding the lyrics is not necessary: melody and sentiment cross the borders of language.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Heidi Kilpeläinen explores crossovers between visual art and music, creating combinations of video, installation art and performance. Her work is inspired by the contemporary world and its technological fascinations, as well as the ancient, mythological forms that run through collective memory.
