The manifold aspects of the current crisis force us to reconsider our
lives, reformulating previous beliefs in the wake of a changed reality. Rosie
Heinrich’s multidisciplinary project we always need heroes¶ (2020)
explores such a myriad turn of perspectives.
Listening to witnesses of
Iceland’s financial crash of 2008, the impossibility to bring order to experience
‘outside narrative’ is unveiled. The unknown must be embraced, since dominant narratives
have been debunked. An alternative language must be invented. we always need heroes¶ speculates on finding
articulations for the crisis itself and the future directions we might
take.
