We Will Not Let You Go explores the subject constructions within European society, and depicts both moments of perceived commonality and the isolation of the individual. The focal questions of the project are the visualisation of intralingual and group hierarchical power structures, and dynamics and modes of expression, as well as symbolic appropriation of space and social control. Holding up plates and signs, the performers repeatedly form new groups of “soundless speakers,” inviting the observers to listen to their own voices and thereby become readers. We Will Not Let You Go is a documentary video based on a performance that happened in Vienna Nordbahnhalle in 2018, a former train station hall.
