the care takers
The Care Takers is a performance based sound installation that weaves a tale of memory loss and what it means to be human.
In charge of a travelling cart are two mysterious characters, The Care Takers, tasked with looking after the memories of one person for the duration of their life. But what happens when those memories begin to fade? Join them as they process and sort, log and file each memory, turning them into sound, music and artefacts along the way.
They cannot do this alone and need help from you, the audience. A co-created symphony of memories and collective experience awaits!
