𝐊!𝐀𝐑𝐓: 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
A performance situation could be many things. In a concert, we are usually met with the situation of musicians performing sounds on their instruments. In theatre, we might encounter a very specific dramatic situation - for example, a woman buried up to her waist in dirt who nonetheless continues attempting to go about her daily life. The situation is what emerges from an unspoken central logic or ruleset that everything else follows from.

K!ART presents a selection of François Sarhan’s Situations: short works for one to three performers and minimal props, each built around simple but volatile conditions. These are paired with complementary works by other composers that introduce instruments and technology, generating their own sonic and behavioural consequences.

Featuring mimicry, hocketing, ventriloquism and the outsourcing of control, this programme unfolds as a chain of performance situations that reveal how constraint produces sound, tension and unexpected forms of coordination and communication.

K!ART [pronounced klart] is a post-instrumental ensemble and creative platform based in Copenhagen. The ensemble puts on DIY-flavored, intermedial music events. Experimental instrumental music, multimedia, performance art, and a holistic approach to curation taking into account staging and dramaturgy shapes the ensemble's vision. A pluralistic approach without aesthetical discrimination to collaborations often results in adventurous and ambitious projects created by young and upcoming artists.
