Darling You Should Feel Lucky
By
At Display
June 4-11, 2022

„So they dance these bodies. Together and within. They camouflage, they shapeshift, they smile; they expand in softness. How soft is the contact before the hit of the touch? A kind of softness that we would long for, like the delicate azure reflections of the faraway. Thus a softness far away from any gendered overtone and overrated opinion but rather lingering through the spectrum of possibilities. “Darling You Should Feel Lucky” is an ode to softness and the multiplicity of perspectives. The malleable beings guide us through the exhibition as to enhance its choreographic features. At the threshold of things, they inhabit desire, where we tend to.“

Baitball 02 🌹Here the documentation of the projection of « Membrane », film by Julie Favreau in the particular location of the Chiesa San Giovanni in Polignano a Mare (IT). The film was especially finished for the occasion. So grateful to Julie for being part of this adventure with us and to Baitball team for putting this great exhibit together.

« Would we raise our machines the same as our own kids? What food would we give them? “What kind of influence does our very own personality have on theirs”? Fantasies, desires, fears, discriminations or any systemic bias might well gather and be perpetuated through devices making them unwilling vehicles and agents of our own feats and foibles. During her recent residencies at Rupert (Vilnius) and Very (Berlin), Julie Favreau focused on creating film experiments in which she brings philosophical texts in conversation with voices from her entourage and visual beings. She works them in thin transparent and porous layers that let themselves be infiltrated by each other, like membranes whose limits would fade to finally lose their relevance. In this overlay of voices and images, a «blob» rises from a natural environment and evokes the emergence of a hybrid element that has integrated artificial intelligence, as well as vegetal and human properties. Here, "A sermon for the parents of young machines", by Federico Campagna (2021) gives the nutriment for this unidentifiable being, voguing in suspension to the sound of this voice while the film acts as a question on transmission and as a meditation on symbiosis. » Marie DuPasquier

Baitball 02 is over but we enjoyed so much being part of this collective experience. Here a few pictures of Maëlle Gross’s film « Mutter Nail » - awarded by the Swiss Art Awards in 2021 - projected in this outstanding venue of the Chiesa San Giovanni, Polignano a Mare (IT). Thanks for being there with us Maëlle and thanks to the team of Baitball who made it possible🌷.

« In this video, as is often the case in my work, the personal, the intimate is mixed with the political or with societal issues. Here, the narrative is built from the myth of Diana, goddess of procreation but also of hunting, and is fed by a set of references that are dear to me: Anne Tsing, Donna Haraway or Hélène Cixcous. Between personal and fabulous mythology, it is about transformation, hybridization, nature, or rather a certain idea of nature. I wanted to stage bodies and share the emancipating and liberating power of dance. I wanted to talk about forms, surfaces and backgrounds that contaminate, build and change together in a perpetual movement. » Maëlle Gross

Ariane Vonmoos’ exhibition « Awake, Take, Work, Howl, Love, Part, Rest » is on view at Anton Bortis, Zurich until April 14. I enjoyed very much to accompany these great works with words 🌹
.

.

«… Ouroboros, infinitely.

Part of the cycle of life and death, once cut, roses take the immediate path of death and become part of an ultra-commercial production chain of love signs owned by powerful lobbies; perhaps even one of the most ferocious capitalist enterprises to draw in and exhaust popular culture. Furthermore, the large scale production of this coveted object contributes to the dramatic degradation of environmental and social conditions.

Made of plaster and fiberglass, Ariane Vonmoos' carved sculptures are robust. And if their gentle tones emerge sharply from the white-cube-like context, the elements are still exposed to vulnerable situations or disbalance, which emphasizes the instability of their existence. They absorb the diluted pigments as well as the complexity of the flowers’ examination. Thus, leading us to a broader reflection on the ambiguity of these emblems that compose our neo-liberal consumerist society’s pop culture. Ariane Vonmoos guides us through the fragility of our being and the meanings of beauty, love and sensuality and wishes for softness. » text by Marie DuPasquier, full version link in bio

“A cultured narrator leads us from the mother-matter, to the end-of-the-world mushroom and a fluid goddess, Diana. Her voguing dance can also be read as an act of combat, with nails as weapons and looks that can kill. Through science fiction, dreaming is an approach used here to drive the practice of modeling narratives, both in the sense of the night dream as a poetic engine, and the dream of another world”. (Raffael Döring, President of the Swiss ArtsAwards)

CLOUDS ON CLEAR SKY

Dance performances

In a series of three solos and one duet, five dancers of different generations and backgrounds work with the topic of death, considering its social and political meaning as well as their own finiteness. In conversation with the artist Johanna Ackva, they are searching for an individual physical language aimed at translating an untranslatable phenomenon.

An evening curated by Marie DuPasquier / Display, Berlin as part of CLOUDS ON CLEAR SKY

🌖🌗🌘🌑

Grief and Gratitude is a research focusing on the cemetery as a garden, and the edible plants which grow therein. Over the past months the artist has been harvesting from graves and untended wild sites of growth within cemeteries throughout Berlin. In private ritual the artist transformed the foraged materials into pesto, syrups, marmalades and candies. Interested in the cyclical or constant transformation possible when one eats from the garden of death – This work reflects on eating as a necessary violence; a site of sacrifice and incorporation as one material loses its form and agency to become with and sustain the life of another. If every meal can awaken a narrative of death, what role can gratitude play in this daily performance? How can we acknowledge the inevitable transformations which accompany death? – How do ritual meals reinforce separations, forge communion and feed hungry ghosts?

This project is funded by Hauptstadtkulturfonds Berlin.

A body lies down, captured in its last gesture, petrified by the ashes of Mount Vesuvius. This snapshot of death – like the recurrent motif in the history of photography – is none other than a calco, an archaeological casting. Human remains, artefact, duplicate, representation? The original has become its own copy. And if its vision haunts the thousands of visitors of Pompeii, its photograph now infuses Mariana Hahn’s whole installation.

‘Print of a young woman
Empreinte d’une jeune femme
Abdruck einer jungen Frau’

Like an auratic image, the ektrchrome thus captioned blends with the reflections of five small showcases containing the tales, the textual, and material memories assembled by the artist. A collection that resonates with the series of half-format photographs that are part of her ongoing research on anthropomorphic natural forms, kind of proto-images revealed by the seizure.

Through photography, video, installation and imprinting Mariana Hahn investigates the modes of image-making, the processes of archiving and transmission. Mariana Hahn digs the memory of her body, of her own genealogy and she depicts the transfer of knowledge from one body to another, from a woman to another. But she also tracks the recurrences and survivals (Nachleben) of collective memories and traumas.
