Waterfall and Fireworks

2023 - ongoing

Waterfall and Fireworks is a series of performances where IPek reads her texts about society and the four elements. The stories are based on all possible feelings from sour-sweet nostalgia to deep-dark sorrow. Most of them are written with a tongue-in-the-cheek attitude and are poetic sociological analysis at the same time. There are neither chronological nor space-based order among them, so the rhythm of the reading is based on the songs she sings among the texts. The deeper the text takes the audience the more monoton the melody is. The subtler the song is, the less information she writes into the following chapter. 

‘The way we handle the four elements in our society and the way we individually connect with them, will show how balanced we are.’
