The Land Beyond
Oh! What a beautiful city
Oh! What a beautiful city
Oh! What a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city - Hallelu!
‘The Land Beyond’ is a visual and musical response to a time of tightening borders. Powerful forces push people from their homes; gates start closing to keep them out of others. Through an implicit invitation to sing a song together - following karaoke-style text and a strong, repetitive melody - Common Sense explores the leap of faith taken every day by thousands of people and questions our participation in today's social reality.
Will you join in singing a song that you didn't write the lyrics for?
A performance installation created in collaboration with Stan Wannet, Ana Wild & Chiara Wilde
