Kurek’s own recordings often fold guitar, organ, electric piano, dusted percussion, and odd vocal fragments into a brittle, half-remembered song form. In this project, those elements are reworked for voices from the Śląsk Song & Dance Ensemble and 16mm visuals, so the set likely sits between folk citation, chamber arrangement, and staged image work.
