The video and sound installation Our Solo experiments with mixing the perception of music in a classical concert hall and of music played in a private setting. Four professional musicians are seen, who seemingly enter into a dialogue across physical distances. Three of these musicians play alone in their private homes, to practice pieces of music and melodies, and improvise individual fragments of sound. Their music seems to transcend through the walls of an empty concert hall, and onto the stage of an opera singer. Different melodies emerge and invite her directly to interact with these domestic performances and intimate moments. 

A project with Derya Yıldırım, Joseph Houston, Phuong-Dan, Freja Sandkamm.

The work was originally commissioned by BNKR – current reflections on art and architecture, Munich on occasion of the exhibition ‘’The Architecture of Confinement“ curated by Till Fellrath and Sam Bardaouil.
