I want to know what love is – repeat karaoke

Karaoke performance with and by Linnea Hansander

A two-hour karaoke afternoon with only one song on the menu, available in three speeds. Repetition as a method to reach an experience beyond meaning in a traditional sense is well proven, and is used both in mantras for meditation, and pop songs. A collective commitment to continue together, and see if we can rehearse through and beyond the song and its lyrics, and reach another kind of meaning.

This time we sing I want to know what love is, as a two hour commitment. We take turns to sing, and whoever is not singing contributes with their audience presence.

In artist presentations, performances and participatory works, the artists form dialogues with Mjellby Art Museum in ways that allow for clashes as well as new perspectives and encounters to emerge
