The Milky Way pours

gentle and white into space.

Everything reflects everything,

the stars above the stars below,

the milk up there the milk down here.

(Theresa Patzschke)


In Theresa Patzschke's performances music and language meet in their similarities and differences and dissolve the categorical in favor of a deconstructivist approach. The vocabulary of each medium unites into electrifying, atmospheric experiences. Language becomes music and music becomes language. 


The newly conceived, site-specific performance TENDER AIR by Patzschke enters into a subtle dialogue with the current solo exhibition Spill Retina by Pamela Rosenkranz at the n.b.k.

Her fiction has appeared in literature and art magazines such as Starship and Das Wetter – Magazin für Text und Musik as well as in exhibition catalogues, and has been performed at Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz and KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, among other venues.
