islamic violins

In Islamic Violins, 22 violins explode during specific intervals over the course of 6 days between midday and midnight. The staging of these explosions constitute a performative process that questions the notion of violence and its relationship to objectification of ideologies and actual performing bodies as a cumulative phenomena.
