Saturday, 4 July — Gong Bath, Sunmao, and an Evening of Sound and Cinema

The piece unfolds in the roof garden of Feuerle Puig House, as a meditation on nature, movement, and transformation.
The evening continues with a live set by Temple Rat, a Berlin-based composer and erhu player from China, combining traditional Chinese instruments, electronic sound, and field recordings, followed by screenings of Gaspar Noé’s Enter the Void (France/Japan, 2009) and Nagisa Ōshima’s In the Realm of the Senses (Japan, 1976).
