About
Maralha- 'an indistinguishable group of people'
Maralha is Local Foreigner's new research project on the potential relationships between new technology, social networks and oral traditions to create new stories and reinvent ways of being together. Local Foreigner will occupy the Casement window with a new experiment each day between 11th and 25th March.
To launch this new research project Local Foreigner will be performing and experimenting with the possibilities of 'sharable' technology from the Casement Window. Meet at Casement noon Sunday with your smartphone to get the CODE to unlock the first Maralha performance.
About The Artist
Local Foreigner appeared as a reflection of the increasingly hostile and confused relation between ideas of locality and foreignness. It explores the relations between national identities, migration, and the existential crisis facing our society.
Local Foreigner is interested in the potency of life; its tensions, intensity and resonance. Their overarching desire is to transform the way we relate to each other & ourselves, towards less oppressed & violent relationships.
