VALLETTA 2018
EUROPEAN CAPITAL OF CULTURE
QUINTESSENCE Ongoing Touring Europe
c. European Central Bank
Presented as a series of artistic events that tap into Valletta 2018’s legacy of engagement with audiences, Quintessence is an immersive and innovative project created and curated by musician, composer and sound artist Renzo Spiteri. The project experiments with awareness through sound, inviting the public to engage with experiences in sound and space. In addition to solo performances and sound and video installations, Quintessence includes ‘Sounding Dance’, a series of artistic encounters designed for European public spaces. These encounters explore modes of interaction within a space with, through and between sound to explore vital questions such as: How does sound affect communities and identities? and How does it relate to time, memory and diverse spaces? Quintessence is an on-going collaboration between Valletta 2018 and Musiconnect and is Valletta 2018’s touring project.
