after water—after tremendous weight—air, space, light
after water—thirst
after water—its memory remains heavy on limbs, in lungs, flooding our ears
after water—we are free; we are parched
drops will flood is a performance installation exploring the dichotomy inherent in all freedoms: drowning meets thirst, lightness leads to emptiness. we negotiate to find balance.
presented in the wasserturm favoriten as part of fluten WORK:SPACE
september 25, 2009
ein work:space für KünstlerInnen aus verschiedenen Medien
13. – 26. 09. 2009 im Wasserturm Favoriten
Windtenstraße 3
1100 Wien
Im Zentrum steht, was Brian Massumi kreative Ansteckung (creative contagion) nennt – eine Zusammenschau verschiedener Medien in der Architektur des Wasserturms.
Durch den Austausch experimenteller Arbeitsansätze wird ein offenes System verbreitet, das affirmativ-kritische Arbeitsmodalitäten erprobt und reflektiert. Ein Format das sich zwischen Labor und performativer Ausstellung ansiedelt.
WORK:SPACE for artists working in various media
At the center of attention is what Brian Massumi called creative contagion, a synopsis of various media meeting the architecture of the watertower.
Through exchange of experimental approaches, we diffuse an open system that tests affirmative-critical work modalities. WORK:SPACE is formatted somewhere between lab and performative exhibition.
