Press release, December 2023

TIMING IS DIVINE = A DRUMMING RITUAL; a performance of LOUDNESS, RHYTHM and DRIVE. Inspired by sexy stars = rock stars / celestial deities – this 30min drum / vocal solo recites the gnostic poem “The Thunder, Perfect Mind” (4th century AD) as well as cheesy love songs and Swedish folk.

By playing with the themes of numerology, holy patterns, chaos / order – the aim is to trigger physical sensation, possibly invoking a hypnotic state in the audience. Sprung from the desire to tell another story, which ultimately may not be comprehended on top of the ambient chaos – but rather felt.

Shit is complicated. Let this be an exorcism.

Warning: TIMING IS DIVINE is loud, and the exhibition space is cold (put on your warm clothes).

Vida Vojić is a performance and music artist from Gothenburg, Sweden. Her current work focuses on drumming as a means of amplifying input, triggering sentient vibrations and awakening alternate states. This accompanies her vocal, scenographic and poetic expressions that draw on her research into theology, posthumanism, music as magic, alternative conceptions of time and the nature of change.

Date: January 6, 6pm-8pm (kl. 18-20), 2024.
