cTrL

In the current social climate, where precarity is a dominant mode of existence, unpredictable encounters are the ones that transform us. We are being remade every time we interact as our points of meeting and departure constantly shift.
cTrL is a sound exploration of two artists united in the condition of being vulnerable to each other. While being sensible to the world, we wonder what else can we do than observe carefully the environment around us? By following instinct and matters of our personal relevance,this collaboration evolves as an open-ended gathering. It allows us to ask about common concerns, causes and effects without assuming them beforehand.
Because of inability to rely on stable structure, we wonder who is in control? Are we really in control of ourselves?

That is how improvisation stands as a natural response to the life without stability. It is a tactic for survival. We consciously dismiss the effort to control the variables that would construct a predetermined point of arrival. Instead, we embrace improvisation as a skill to deal with whatever is happening to us in the experience of performing while being listened to and watched. Therefore, we often perform without any preconceived content and let the artwork emerge during the performance.
