"kozek hörlonski find their material in the folcloric ceremonies and rituals of the Perchtenlauf processions, including their related myths. The significant gesture of obeisance in the Perchten cult is a major element of the duo's performance, which pays tribute to the KIT art instituion with an interpretation of the Tafelpercht (a good luck figure from the Salzburg area). Using transformation and disguises, kozek hörlonski transfer in their actions historical or traditional analogies to the present."
