Holy Hydra is a two-day event involving contemporary performances, electronic sound art, interactive light installations and a symposium about “Sacral Space vs. Urban space” in the parish church of Urfahr, next to the “Ars-Electronica-Maindeck.” The major concern is to present different artistic disciplines and approach interested groups in its unique spiritual atmosphere – a sacred space. To offer an experience at this special place for everyone regardless of their religious conviction or their beliefs. The project is intended as an idea for how to extend the use of architecturally and historically valuable structures. Churches fulfill those attributes perfectly and are exemplary for an alternative usage.
