death by dagger
In the eyes of Utrecht based music label & art collective death by dagger, the beauty of art is that it is capable of challenging the status quo, offering perspective and to forge new connections between thoughts and humans.
For U? 2026, death by dagger co-curate a multidisciplinary program exploring the tension between our fast-moving digital reality and the enduring value of tradition, craft, and physical presence. As each performance unfolds, music fills the space only to disappear the moment it ends, while a canvas gradually accumulates its traces through layers, textures, and gestures. With every act, a physical artwork grows into a lasting record of what can no longer be heard, reflecting on what remains in an age of constant change and instant consumption. By bringing musicians and visual artists together in a shared space, the program blurs the boundaries between disciplines and celebrates the lasting power of collective making.
