HEATERS II
The soundscape is based on the stories of three protagonists who meet in a rehabilitation center to recover from a head injury, a dislocated joint, or a broken tooth. Their interaction takes place through spending time together at a bathing area, where they exchange stories about dreams, falling in love, and awaiting future. The performance is designed as a combination of soundscape and reading, with the addition of visual components in the form of projections and miniature casts.
The work was realized with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia, Zaklada Kultura Nova, and the City of Zagreb Office for Culture.
Paula Tončić (Zagreb, 1997) is an artist whose artistic and research practice is grounded in processes of archiving, classifying, and documenting uncanny objects. Through grotesque elements, she explores the boundaries between reality and fiction, with a particular focus on girlhood experience within the context of the feminine gaze and spaces of female intimacy. Strongly influenced by fiction literature and trash horror cinema, her work is marked by a fascination with liminal spaces and the transformation of materials from one medium into another.
