Ivan Vukosavljevic & Joana Gama
Saturday evening is dedicated to two world premieres:
Ela Orleans presents a new work for Ensemble Klang together with visual artist Pavla Beranova, while Ivan Vukosavljevic joins forces with Portuguese piano virtuoso Joana Gama for a brand-new project.
Ela Orleans, Associate Maker with Ensemble Klang, is a Polish audiovisual artist and composer who weaves image and sound together in surprising ways. From horns combined with breakbeats to driving lo-fi drum ’n’ bass, she continually captivates with her unexpected sound world. Her work has been exhibited and performed at MoMA PS1 (New York), MASS MoCA (Massachusetts), the Venice Biennale, and TATE Britain. In this new work, light, film, mise-en-scène, and music merge into a compelling experience.
Later in the evening, the premiere of a new project by Ivan Vukosavljevic & Joana Gama follows – a collaboration in which sound, structure, and imagination intertwine in a unique way.
Shadow Forest is an immersive installation and performance by Korean artist Go-Eun Im that continuously adapts to its surroundings and its audience. Through film, live drawing, shadow play and a layered soundscape, a living environment emerges in which visitors are free to move and shape their own experience.
Inspired by Henry David Thoreau’s Walden and the forest as a utopian space, Shadow Forest invites moments of stillness, attention and renewed sensitivity to the small, fragile and more-than-human life around us.
Go-Eun Im: “I hope the audience experiences this work like being in a forest: unexpected, layered and alive.”
On 15, 16 & 17 January Go-Eun will present a special live performance within the installation, 19.00-19.45. There’s only space for a small audience, so arrive on time, first come, first serve!
After that, the installation will be open to visitors throughout the evening
