Home vs hole
Music composed by Nick Wilson
The work represents a journey of exploration and negotiation through words and their meaning. As a singing contest between a performance artist and a tenor, starting in Language and finishing in pure abstract tone.
Using their distinctive voices the t2 protagonists, a man and a woman share and compare their diverging interpretation of the two words HOME and HOLE. Both find it difficult to accommodate each others ways of thinking and behaving.
Through a series of monologues, dialogues duets and drawing/scribbling on the walls , they attempt to resolve their linguistic conflict. The performance ends when an agreement is reached (outside language)
