Pharmaceuticals takes us into the daily lives of two pharmacists.
Everyday scenarios turn into extraordinary events.
Filled into recuperated jars - flora, white sand and water find their place next to more common pharmaceutical objects on the ‘pharmacy shelf’. As we witness the music taking the protagonists through a timeless journey - the piece invites us to reflect on (dis)connection and the place of remedies in our pandemic era.
