SHRINK 01995 at L.E.V. Matadero

Matadero
Madrid (ES)

SHRINK 01995 - Two large, transparent plastic sheets and a device that gradually sucks the air out from between them leave the body (in this case the artist himself) vacuum-packed and vertically suspended. The transparent tube inserted between the two surfaces allows the person inside the installation to regulate the flow of air. As a result of the increasing pressure between the plastic sheets, the surface of the packed body gradually freezes into multiple micro-folds. For the duration of the performance the person inside moves slowly and changes positions, which vary from an almost embryonic position to one resembling a crucified body.

At L.E.V. Matadero there will be 6 Shrinks and the bodies of 6 performers.

tele-present water at Scopitone 2023

Stereolux /Beaux-Arts Nantes Saint Nazaire
Nantes (F)

tele-present water - This installation draws information from the intensity and movement of the water in a remote location. Wave data is being collected and updated from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data buoy station 51003. This station was originally moored 205 nautical miles Southwest of Honolulu on the Pacific. It went adrift and the last report from its moored position was around 04/25/2011.  It is still transmitting valid observation data but its exact location is unknown. The wave intensity and frequency collected from the buoy is scaled and transferred to the mechanical grid structure, resulting in a simulation of the physical effects caused by the movement of water from this distant unknown location. This work physically replicates a remote experience and makes observation of the activity of an isolated object, otherwise lost at sea, possible through direct communication.

EXTRACTIONS 23

A Two Dogs Company / Kris Verdonck
Brussels (B)

EXTRACTIONS 23 is an exhibition that brings together different artists who work along the themes of extraction and landscapes. The selection of installations, new and mixed media, photographs, paintings, drawings, sculptures, performances and music, sketches an image of humankind that seems to have no other choice than to exploit its environment. Extraction does not only mean destruction, or at least not right away. It can also mean cultivation, making land available for growing crops. Nowadays, extraction has degenerated into consumption, a devastating process that is wreaking havoc at micro and macro levels, from our intimate thoughts to the layers of the Earth. EXTRACTIONS 23 is the third edition of this annual exhibition organised by Kris Verdonck / A Two Dogs Company and takes place in the company’s atelier.

What Dogs Hear - Sound installation & performance

MG+ Moderna Galerija / Museum of Modern Art
Ljubljana

What Dogs Hear consists of a vocal mimesis of imperceptible signals, sound waves and radio waves beyond human hearing range. Aernoudt Jacobs will perform this work with Slovenian vocalists in the form of an installation and several performances in Ljubljana for a wide audience of babies, children and adults. The tangibility of bodily sounds will get a focus during the performances. The performers' vocalizations will be heard through stethoscopes and amplified through a foil speaker that can be manipulated by the audience.

In the framework of B-AIR
Performed by Tisa Neža Herlec, Žiga Jenko, Tea Vidmar, Ina Puntar and Aernoudt Jacobs
Co-produced by KUD Mreža/Nataša Serec, RTVSLO, B-AIR, r25b4

When a sixth person tries to join, five must define what makes them a group.

A Raven tells the story of five friends who live together. It would be a peaceful life if a sixth one did not continually try to join them. The five don’t know the sixth, but they don’t really know each other either. And what is acceptable to the five is not acceptable to the sixth. How can they explain this to the sixth? Long explanations would lead them to include him in their group. Then the Five reject him, until a Seventh presents himself to the group...

Tipping Point

Bleue - 3ième édition
Théâtre des Bernardines, Marseille (F)

Bleue is a celebration of the sea as a melting pot of biodiversity and part of a whole, our planet, in the era of climate change.

The installation Tipping Point is a sensitive and poetic tribute to those dying glaciers. It stages the (re)birth of an artificial glacier protected by a dome; a drip is feeding the glacier that will grow during the exhibition. The device invites the viewer to attend the birth of this artificial glacier. It is inspired by the “ice stupas” invented by the engineer Sonam Wangchuk and used to fight against water shortages during the summer in Ladakh.

Between a laboratory experiment, an attempt to repair the climate or an ironic collector’s item, the installation confronts us with time and scales; 10.000 years ago, the stabilisation of our cryosphere coincided with the first human traces we found in Mesopotamia, while the fist glaciers are disappearing in 70 years under the pressure of the human activity.

No myths for these countries of the mind

Dauwens & Beernaert
Avenue de Stalingrad 26, 1000 Brussels (B)

Alex Verhaest presents at Dauwens & Beernaert No myths for these countries of the mind, a comprehensive exhibition of four narrative audiovisual series.

The artist has been working in the experimental audiovisual and cinematic field since her debut in 2013. The exhibition shows a selection of a decade of work by the artist including the family drama: Temps Mort, The archive of unattained futures; a body of work that interrogates utopian tropes consisting reuniting silk screen print, closed circuit video and a video game, and Society the artist’s most recent short film. We invite you to discover her outlandish worlds and her consistently surprising ways of telling stories that matter.
