For this year´s event, the artists worked on the concept of discordance as it relates to political, social, cultural and economic structures. In the context of the presentation, the artists explored the performative nature of their own individual works and created a new collaborative piece which responded specifically to the idea of discordance as structures of opposition, social dichotomies and its more poetic and symbolic extensions.

The evening included multiple projections / screenings / performances / installations throughout the entire physical space of Irida Theatre.
