How does it feel to look at nothing

Now at BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music), *How does it feel to look at nothing* arrives as an opera that treats absence and attention as its core material. The featured performers include How does it feel to look at nothing, framing the piece as a self-contained work rather than a vehicle for star turns. For New York audiences, its significance lies in how it tests the city’s appetite for stillness inside an institution built for scale and spectacle. One clear takeaway is its refusal to explain itself, asking listeners to sit with uncertainty instead.
