Details

The Soldier's Song is an installation from Quarantine (Susan & Darren, Make-believe) made with and about currently serving soldiers. Developed over an 18 month period of conversation and questions, The Soldier's Song offers an intimate screen karaoke liaison with a currently serving soldier. Entering the karaoke 'booth', press a button to select from the seven soldiers in front of you as each one prepares to sing. The Soldier's Song challenges our preconceptions about soldiers and asks us to ponder our connection with them, inviting us to duet with an individual who might fight in our name. A simple, quietly provocative piece that asks us whether we're willing to remain an audience.
