Sarah Hugentobler - Is That Me? A Solo for Many

Description

Who is “I”? And am I still “I” when I am many? Or am I only “I” through “You”? Sarah Hugentobler lends her body to the voices and stories of other people. Through a combination of lip-syncing and video projections, a single performer unfolds into a resonant kaleidoscope of diverse identities. The voice becomes the central marker of identity—detached from gender, age, or appearance. The performance is created from recorded conversations between the performer and the interviewees.
This creates a space of empathy where the boundaries between “you” and “I” disappear. With humor and musicality, “Bin ich das?” questions societal attributions of identity and invites the audience to listen closely and discover themselves in others. Sarah Hugentobler grew up in the Schaffhausen region and now lives in Bern as a video artist. She develops her own film projects and produces music videos, performances, and videos for theater productions. Artistic Direction/Performance/Video: Sarah Hugentobler
