“A bridge beyond the past…an unstoppable future which starts now!” (Lydia Lunch)
A Kaleidoscope of Nothingness is an ephemeral and repeatable utopia … in time … through space … into bodies … around bodies …
pacing up and down unknown landscapes … revisiting forgotten lands …
A universe where texts, images and sound are coagulating since the American artist Kit Brown
and the Swiss writer Dejan Gacond met in October 2009 in a Parisian atelier…
Lydia Lunch, invited by Dejan Gacond performed her first show in the installation A Kaleidoscope of Nothingness
at Rock Altitude Festival 2013 in Le Locle.
An artistic, poetic friendship which began and grew through the installations.
A Kaleidoscope of Nothingness has seen Lydia Lunch perform 15 times as part of these installations…
A grand and sprawling installation at Kupper Modern…
A retrospective… a common homage to literature… a poetic space in immersion…
"A Kaleidoscope of Nothingness… it’s my institution… I am the nurse and the patient.” (Lydia Lunch)
