Primal Scream

Primal Scream by Rick Kup & Tatum Kempers.

13 drawings (150 x 100 cm, charcoal pastels and graphite on paper), a video and (several) projection(s) over drawings.

Primal Scream. In our hectic modern world we are increasingly distant from our true human essence. The scream is a primitive but powerful act that functions to connect with our humanity, rediscover ourselves and free ourselves from emotional baggage. The scream is a universal expression, a sound that connects us all, regardless of our background or culture. Try it: Sit up straight, close your eyes, feel the energy bubbling up and release it in one big Primal Scream.
