THE HUDDLE

Quick Info

In „THE HUDDLE”, Katja Aufleger makes several pieces of construction machines – stripped of their functions and redefined – enter into an unconventional dialogue. In sports, the „Huddle”, which inspired the name of the act, refers to a meeting between the team to develop a strategy for the next game. Similarly to her installation „Applause”, in which she had an excavator clap its hands forcefully, Katja Aufleger is developing a special sound language for the machines. The familiar presence of construction machines in public spaces appears strange and inspires new associations. Does this archaically impressive society perhaps share a direct relationship with ultra modern robots? Whether we as the visitors monitor the interaction or trigger it, will be an interesting fact to determine.

This production was contributed by Urbane Künste Ruhr for the Ruhrtriennale.
