SUM

by Giw & Kilonzo

SUM 2022

livestream recording from WINTERJAZZ FESTIVAL 2022 / STADTGARTEN KÖLN

„spiritual, easy. heavy booming feedback covers hidden communication with nonexistent cultures. sweat, signs, mirrors and angles tell about meaning, you just need to look.“ SUM is an multidisciplinary art project by dancer/performer Kelvin Kilonzo and musician/performer Pablo Gīw from Berlin & Köln. Krump and silence in an urban-free-improvisation-ritual.

“spiritual, easy. In wummerndem Feedback verbirgt sich verlorene Kommunikation nicht existierender Urkulturen. Sweat und Fingerzeichen. Spiegel und Winkel, die Bedeutung verraten wenn man nur hinschaut. Die sich konstant verändernde Performance SUM von Giw und Kilonzo lässt Improvisation als Quelle von Bedeutung wirken, es geht um verschwimmende Rollen und Zustände, voller Beat und Nahaufnahmen. Krump und Stille, ein urban-free-improvisation-ritual.”
