KLAN 404 is a live artistic event at the intersection of performance, music, and visual art. It emerged as the culmination of the project Revolution of the Everyday —a several-month-long artistic program carried out with women at Drahonice Prison.
The number 404 refers to what “cannot be found”—to voices, images, and experiences that often remain invisible. KLAN 404 transforms this invisibility into a collective voice, image, and rhythm.
The Revolution of Everyday Life does not stem from the idea of a grand upheaval, but from small opportunities to change one’s own everyday life. In an environment where much of the day is dictated by routines and rules, voice, movement, rhythm, image, and creative expression become a space for imagination, self-expression, and collective action.
During the project, KLAN emerges—a temporary community of women who create their own visual and auditory language. Masks, collective movement, rap, singing, and rhythm do not serve to suppress individuality here, but to create a collective voice.
KLAN 404 transfers this process from the prison environment to public space. Not as a documentation of prison life, but as an autonomous artistic presentation.
