HYPER HIDRO SISSY is a commission of Bodø Biennale

«Excuse me, what’s your excitement hours? Does your phone approve your fingerprint? Do cats lose their winter fur from your caress? Are you longing for mutual precipitation?»  

The performance HYPER HIDRO SISSY pulls a damp hand over the public realm, and tracks fluid perception. HYPER HIDRO SISSY springs from a fragmentary textual material where nervous dissociation is explored as a strength and hypersensitivity while going public. The lyrics flow out and become musical sequences in collaboration with a choir formed with local performers. The performance takes place in a damp slope behind the old swimming pool in Rensåsparken.
