The transdisciplinary RRRRRR Collective was founded in Hong Kong in 2018 by Keng Chen, Wen-Chi Liu, Dino Radoncic, Eneas Prawdzic, Nathalie Stirnimann and Stefan Stojanovic. The name ‘RRRRRR’ plays on a linguistic pun. The letter ‘R’ is difficult to pronounce in many languages. It symbolises the willingness to bridge cultural and linguistic divides, even if mutual understanding remains incomplete, simply by pronouncing something differently.
Keng Chen lives and works in Hangzhou and Shanghai. She is a performance artist and artist whose practice combines live art, performance, and theater, exploring themes of identity, everyday life, and intercultural collaboration.
Wen-Chi Liu lives and works in Taoyuan and Taipei. She is an artist and art writer exploring emotional projections across the boundaries between the artificial and the natural. Through performance, installation, and text, she creates spaces where fiction and reality intertwine.
Eneas Prawdzic lives and works in Zurich. He is a theater maker and co-director of Proberaum Zukunft, a theater group dedicated to rehearsing possible futures. From 2019 to 2025, he served as a dramaturg at Theater Neumarkt.
Dino Radoncic lives and works in St. Gallen and Zurich. He is an artist whose work translates everyday routines into performances, videos, and objects that reveal hidden cultural and historical layers.
Nathalie Stirnimann and Stefan Stojanovic live and work as the artist duo Stirnimann-Stojanovic in Zurich. Their practice combines performance, installation, and social participation, reflecting on structural inequalities within the art system.
Dimitri de Perrot lives and works in Zurich. He began his artistic career in the 1990s as a DJ and turntablist and developed into a sound artist, director and stage designer, as well as a lecturer at the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK). His work focuses on storytelling with sound and space at the intersection of theatre, music and visual arts.
