Co-production of the Munich Biennale with Musik der Jahrhunderte Stuttgart in cooperation with Connecting Space Hong Kong, Goethe-Institut Hong Kong, West Kowloon Cultural District and Zurich University of the Arts.

Bubble marks the membrane between personal life and the surrounding public sphere through musical and theatrical intervention in both spheres: A guided neighborhood walk that leads visitors several times through an imperceptibly changing environment until it finally ends in an apartment. Through headphones, participants receive sonic vignettes of daily life. With each repetition, the moment of familiarity blurs due to uncertainty about the authenticity of what is being experienced. The climax is the living room scene, in which the speech bubble is replaced by a silent bubble of four walls and previously unlocatable sounds now come to the fore as a composed sound architecture.
