No one’s at fault, not really
By Pat Janeiro
Netherlands, 2025, 25 min., English, world premiere, English, multimedia performance
A performance blending 16mm film, sound loops, music, and spoken word. In collaboration with Mariëtte Groot, Janeiro creates a rich soundscape that moves fluidly from karaoke recordings and breathing exercises to synths and acoustic instruments. The visuals depict everyday social life, interwoven with sudden, inexplicable mysteries, drawing on gothic themes, with transformation and death as central elements. These are portrayed in a raw, visceral way, heightening the piece’s unsettling yet playful atmosphere.
