The starting point of SCHREI vol.3 was to broaden the investigation of the portrayal and presentation of angry women by researching her in a collective of artists and feminists. The literature which inspired this work was different interpretations of the myth of Medea (Medea by Euripides, Medea - Voices by Christa Wolf, Medealand by Sara Stridsberg), interviews with female and feminist performance artists from the 60ies and 70ies from the book Angry Women, edited by A. Juno and V. Vale and autobiographical texts. The result was an audiovisual and immersive performance, inviting the audience on a journey of exploring different aspects of female anger.
