”In conjunction with Hanna Sjöstrand’s exhibition at Konsthall 16, Taverna geometrica, we invite you to a never-before-seen match of cave football. The “cave” prefix refers partly to the fact that the players play blindfolded, and partly to more philosophical thoughts. The game is played with a silent ball, and the blindfolded players are led in the right direction on the field by two team leaders. The creators and participants each contribute linguistically in their own unique way to the match.”
