- Dance
approx. 60 mins.
LABOUR, this is Farahnaz Hatam and Colin Hacklander, create acoustic choreographies and immersive multidisciplinary works. At HAU Hebbel am Ufer, the Berlin-based duo’s compositions have already been experienced in the works of Ariel Efraim Ashbel and caner teker. “sungazing (رضایت)” distinct from its iteration at Kraftwerk Berlin in November 2022, notably features the two dancers Cassie Augusta Jørgensen and Daniil Simkin, the video work of Evelyn Bencicova, Enes Güç, Zeynep Schilling, and the light design by MFO. In this interwoven relationship, the elements shift from temporally aligned to temporally disjunct, transforming HAU2 into a multi-sensory experiential space. While finding inspiration in Zoroastrianism, an Iranian religion thousands of years old, and its rituals revolving around fire and the sun. “sungazing” dives further into the possibilities within club culture’s hedonism to political action and civil disobedience.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:
If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.
Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:
When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
