Join us at ZiMMT for a work-in-progress performance by our Indonesian artists in residence, Ikbal Lubys and Aii Wijaya. The performance will feature live video, silent film, experimental guitar explorations, and spatial sound, delving into musical tensions connected to the colonial sonic history of Kraton, the Sultan’s palace in Yogyakarta.

Following the performance, there will be an artist talk where Ikbal and Aii will share insights into their artistic practice and research.

Aii and Ikbal have been working at ZiMMT Leipzig for three weeks as part of the inaugural artist exchange between the sound art venues ZiMMT in Leipzig and ETHNICTRO in Yogyakarta. This performance is presented in cooperation with local artists from ZiMMT, Kombinat e.V., and Kollektiv WERT.
