The Well by the Berlin-based, Istanbul-born producer and performer Başak Günak (aka Ah! Kosmos!) invites the audience to lend an ear to the whistled sounds in the heart of a well. Deconstructing a Southeast Anatolian folk song titled Bu Dağlar Meşe Dağlar (These Mountains, Mountains of Oak), Günak takes the topography of the region where the song sprung from as a source of inspiration and sets out to bridge the land and collective memory though audible sounds and sub-audible vibrations.

The premier is at 8pm on February 27, 2020
