The Soldiers Song
Tuesday 21 July 2009 - Saturday 25 July 2009
“Two wars go on – and I still buy shoes, decide what I want for tea, chat about the weather… What are these wars we are engaged in? Who fights them? What is my place in all this? We don’t find out about people fighting in our name until they die, or break the rules, or publish a bestseller based on their experiences.” - Renny O’Shea
The Soldier’s Song is a sound-based installation by Renny O’Shea of Quarantine, exploring the world of currently serving British soldiers through the music they listen to. It takes the form of a karaoke booth.
Quarantine were last seen at The Brewhouse in October 2007, with the acclaimed and much talked-about Susan & Darren. The Soldier’s Song is an experience for one audience member at a time every 10 minutes.
