Research Feature: The River Goes On
Intraregionale Festival presents Prof Cathy Lane‘s new multichannel sound work 'Square Peg Round Hole' at the festival venue Langenhagen Chapel. 'Square Peg Round Hole' concerns the largely unknown and undocumented inhabitants of the Langenhagen ‘Idiot Asylum’ many of whom we presume were buried in the circular cemetery which was originally attached to the chapel which is the site of the work. The title of the work refers to the English expression for someone who does not fit in to the society or the environment that they find themselves in; and the work is a meditation on their lives, the nineteenth century mission to ‘normalise the abnormal’ and the nature of communication and language.
