Under the title Moving Water, Bodies & Souls, VIDEO WINDOW presents a programme featuring a new work each by Swiss artists Nicole Bachmann and Johanna Kotlaris: There are Tides in the Body and Humere. The two distinct works comprise a collagenous composition of short scenes by three performers exploring the theme of migration, followed by a mythological epic about a fictional zombie-heroine presented as a musical film. Common to both videos is the metaphorical presence of the fluid element of water.
