›Visions In Monochrome‹ is an audiovisual installation that explores the depths of the human psyche in displacement, where the body contends for survival amid a world confined within parallel lines. Led by inspiration from wheat-cultivating Saweel Al Qamh - صويل القمح‹), the multidisciplinary artist Qusay Awad composes experimental soundscapes and incorporates body performance within the language of »physical cinema«.
By exploring the interplay between space, time, and the queer body, Qusay demonstrates how embodied memory serves as a catalyst for healing, recognizing it as an integral part of ancestral collective memory. Through this lens, viewers are invited to consider resistance through deliberate memory selection, highlighting the pursuit of personal narratives amid influences.
This installation is part of a live performance and research project that began during the summer residency at PACT Zollverein in August 2023.
