About

Poems of Consumption turns Amazon customer reviews into “pop songs” written, composed, arranged, and produced by H.Sinno and their collaborators. The harsh electronica and lush string quartet are accompanied by video work by Sinno and Matteo Zamagni which further saturates the performance with a relentless barrage of phantasmagorical visuals.

Inspired by Mark Fisher’s Capitalist Realism, polymath H.Sinno searches for fugitive intimacies and poetic temporalities by jamming Amazon’s 5-star rating system with poetry about their own consumer behavior.

Commissioned by the Barbican Centre and Shubbak Festival in July 2023, Poems of Consumption is a multimedia anti-spectacle that marks H.Sinno’s first lyrical excursion into the English language, as well as the former pop-star’s first solo work since Mashrou Leila.
