K O - H U M is a Berlin based company which curates, develops and promotes stimulating projects by artists working across sound, music, visual and performing arts.
Through close dialogue with a range of collaborators, the company supports artists in releasing their works, facilitating performances and establishing authentic ventures with cultural institutions, bookings, media outlets and venues.
At the heart of the company's practice is a process-based relationship between artist and audiences, which seeks to give the projects space to find their own rhythm, public outputs, and discourse.
Founded in 2017, K O - H U M ’s core aim is to foster a dialogue between a range of disciplines by providing a platform where adventurous minds can encounter art that contextualizes, interprets, educates and expands culture, leading us to the edges of the contemporary experience.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
"Everything in the universe is made by atoms. Does this mean that everything in the universe is dead, or that everything is alive? Does this mean that we can never die because we were never alive?

Everything in the universe is made by atoms, so does this mean that everything in the universe is dead or that everything is alive? Does this mean we can never die because we were never alive? This defines the question of complexity. Life and death are probably irrelevant concepts which we don't fully understand. Is it possible that we are much deeper connected to the universe around us than we thought? We don‘t have answers for you - just questions to think about. Thinking about questions like these and encountering conflicts in our consciousness makes us feel alive. This is ‘the gift‘.

The ensemble has gained popularity because of its ability to mix ballet lines and aesthetic with raw emotions and sarcasm. The style is powerful and sophisticated, presenting each work as a refined visual metaphor of the human psyche. All the movements are expression of an accurate research into the body's architecture, where the intricate lines of the execution become a framework for expression and tension, leaving the audience often in discomfort and suspense.
