In films and music performances, Quynh Dong (*1982, lives in Zurich, Switzerland) presents the medial re-production of emotions. Translated into different languages and from different cultural backgrounds, her songs tell of unfulfilled desire for love and passion. The band Drunger und Drüber takes a Bernese-German expression as the starting point for their lyrics, which were originally borrowed from Vietnamese and recomposed in the Bernese idiom for the LISTE performance. When Dong performs with her band on the street in front of the fair and encounters the globalized art world in a local dialect, the group appears as a transcendent figure between exoticism and local identity.
