The Scavenger’s Daughters is an ambiguous portrait of two sisters.This epic text spins a web of dreams, thoughts and deviations. The title refers to the act of scavenging words, ideas, food and emotions as well as the passing on of words and habit through family ties. The sisters speak in a way that imitates the workings of the brain in daydreams so thoughts follow in quick succession. The performance zooms in on the role of non-communication, distance, family and gender stereotypes. The viewer is taken along an almost hypnotising stream of thoughts which are exteriorised and relased into the air by the voice.
