In the Words, I Listen to Silence

Show & Culture

In her poetry, the great Luxembourgish poet Anise Koltz constantly constructs and reconstructs worlds, organising and reorganising the world—her world—between cosmos and intimacy. Dans les paroles, j’écoute le silence is an invitation to wander with Anise, to suspend time and inhabit the in-between: a fertile void where silence becomes matter and every gesture opens up a resonance. Anise Koltz dedicated her poems “to the silence found at the heart of every uproar”. This theatrical encounter with the writing and principles of this poetic thinker and explorer does not seek to narrate or illustrate her creative paths, but to open a free space in which the audience and the artists on stage assemble the time of the performance from the elements offered by Koltz.
