What an extraordinary thing it is to encounter an octopus at sea; its visual appeal and beauty of movement, its corporeal and social abilities, unsaturable curiosity and intelligence.
For my graduation work at Ruhr-University Bochum I try to visualize how an invisible, chaotic and disturbing phenomenon like dizziness may become visible for an audience.
Drifting away my perception changes. I can only recognise parts of what I do, see, hear and experience. Only in a quiet, secluded environment can I enjoy this state of dizziness, because I can deliver myself into it.
Opposed to the violence of the Plantationocene, the Kola embodies constructive forms of activity and communication and enables the emergence of respectful, equal relationships.
Five arts-based research projcets taking place at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna will be presented and discussed. Kerstin Mey from University of Westminster and member of the Austria Science Board will give the keynote at the end of the day.
Exhibition series and with a decentralised programme, featuring discursive formats, screenings, performances, and an audio archive.
