Listening Walk and Collective Sonic Ritual
Fr 8.5.2026
4.30 pm – 8 pm
What does it mean to listen to water?
How are we shaped by the memories that flow through and around us?
Undercurrents – What Waters Remember explores the neighborhood’s waters as resonant spaces of remembrance. It emerges from the co-creative workshop series Shhh… Listening with Waters. Rooted in deep listening as a political practice, participants together with the artistic team – Çiğdem Borucu, Graziele Sena da Silva, Susana Ojeda, and Zuzana Ernst – approach water as a carrier of memory.
On May 8, within the framework of Klima Biennale Wien, the public is invited to join a listening walk through the waters of Brunnenmarkt, followed by a sonic ritual for the waters of the former bunker beneath the Yppenpark. This site-specific artwork invites participants to attune to the underground currents and sound ecologies that connect us to larger bodies of water, making the underheard audible, and engaging listening as an anti-fascist practice against forgetting.
Undercurrents – What Waters Remember is a cooperation between Brunnenpassage, Initiative Erinnern in Zukunft, Sinopale: International Sinop Biennale, ÆSR Lab, within the frame of Klima Biennale Wien.
