GUIDING INTEREST

Andrea Moeller: We wanted to really answer to the call for mixing realities. So we captured what means ‘home’ to us in sounds – a doorbell, the sound of the scanner in the supermarket, church bells, traffic sounds, seagulls, wind in trees, rain, cows, horses, people and music at a party….We presented these sounds in everyday objects of Tunisian life in order to bring the realities really close together. And we experienced that that worked just right: the mainly Tunisian audience did not feel any distance to what we presented, but easily approached the installation and dared to touch and open the objects – pots, pans, tajines….to be surprised and carried away by the sounds we brought. Our accomplices Mariam and Cherif did a great job of telling the story, encouraging people to interact, and so – with hardly any spoken word from the members of LUNA Collective, we think we brought over our impressions of reality back in the Netherlands.
