Q: How to perform a scream?
A: At the Same Time, Everywhere, Especially Now.
How to perform a scream? is a series of workshops exploring voice as a tool to fracture, reconstruct, and interrupt spaces, while confronting oppressive systems and the “apocalyptic lovers” that seduce, control, and harm. Through spoken word, polyphony, cacophony, and experimental choir, participants activate the voice as a site of personal histories, nurturing a dramaturgy of disobedience. Drawing from vocal training, acting, performance art, feminist theory, crip theory, and critical pedagogy, the scream becomes a counterstructure to dominant narratives and cultures of ignorance.
We will begin our practice in the restaurant of Kulturverein zur Schießhalle, where coffee and cake will be offered. While you consume them, I will interrupt with a monologue. Afterward, we will move into the workshop rooms to continue with exchanges, invitations, and various individual and collective tasks. On the second day, we will address the dangerous lovers and perform together throughout the spaces of the house.

Alongside an active international exhibiting and performance practice, she has participated in numerous art residencies, including CRL - Central Elétrica (Porto, Portugal), DAAD Heritage for Communities (Luxor, Egypt), and Freie Radikale at Floating University (Berlin, Germany), among others.
