silence matters is an international, interdisciplinary
exhibition- and performance project. It dedicates its focus on the growing importance and potential need of awareness and
mindfulness in our society, through artistic and scientific approaches.
The project aims to
heighten the experience and knowledge about awareness and its research through and with contemporary art practices, such as:
performance, sculpture, drawing, and sound.
silence matters puts emphasis on the individual perception, personal
awareness, and the experience of time and duration. We hope to open new spaces and situations, in which the public and audience
is invited to experience and enter this field of research together with the artists involved.
