Water Appears

“Water Appears” is a collaborative project of the artists Noga Shalit- Glick and Naomi Weisselberg, who create moments of observing floating and flooding states that take shape through a musical journey. This is a vocal and visual performance, in which voice and shadow, as a testament of the body, are the main characters. An intimate encounter that is a live show set in an aquatic world of sound and silhouettes. 

Through the words, the two explore time, memory and their impact on the human voice, which starts in the present and constantly disintegrates back and forth. The amalgamation of voice, electronic music, and field recordings with silhouettes of the body allows the duo to ask: What is the fine line that separates the external world from the imagination? What is the shape of the things we do not see? 

By combining the two voices they investigate the voice that speaks inwardly versus the one that speaks outwardly and the reverberations formed between them.  

Shalit- Glick and Weisselberg work together as the duo “nūn”, which takes its name from the ancient Egyptian god of the watery abyss. They enter a hidden bubble and look for the movement between a feeling of stability and the one that collapses, erupts, sinks, drifts away. What does it feel like to dive into a world that has a different sense of time, weight, and sound?
