Performance at Zeiss-Großplanetarium, Berlin, January 2021; and at the National Pantheon, Lisbon, October 2021.
Half a Name is a site-specific opera performance series, in which Pan Daijing takes on the expansive sound and visual documentation of her large-scale performances, developed in recent years. Deconstructing moments of memories, the piece explores the possibilities of the performative archive, as well as its practice in experimental narrative.
