Workshop: Listening Workshop “What Waters Remembered” – Çiğdem Borucu, Susana Ojeda, Zuzana Ernst

Water, which makes up a large part of our bodies and of life on Earth, carries traces of the past with it as it flows.

For millions of years, water has circulated among bodies and beings, rocks and soil, rivers and clouds. The waters beneath the earth, on its surface, and in the sky constantly meet and transform.

So, what do we hear when we listen to these waters?

The listening journey that began in Vienna now continues in Sinop. The waters of the Danube River, brought from Vienna, will meet the rhythms and memories of the Black Sea.

Just as invisible webs intertwine bodies, beings, and lands, sounds and stories will forge new connections among these waters.

The project is being realized with the support of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Housing, Arts, Culture, Media, and Sports—Department of Fine Arts, Design, Photography, and Media Arts; the Austrian Cultural Office in Istanbul; and the Saha Association; in collaboration with Brunnenpassage and the Vienna Climate Biennale.
