Liza Penkova & Sue-Yeon Youn

Residency
- During years of friendship and working together at Rosas, Sue Yeon and Liza have been playing with ideas in studio while on tour, making music under the name of “Pukahontas and Tights” and now have finally organized their schedules to work towards a clear goal of creating a work together- a duett. Both fascinated by craft and “hand made” qualities they would like attempt their first creation: “The silent song”. The objective of these 7 day residency at MDT is to find out what a silent song can be, and based on their answers create basic material and structure that can be used as a daily practice until the next residency period.
