MISSSPELLED

_MG_0874.JPG

Missspelled is a performative space of untamed actions, aiming to become a bewitched, transformative arena.

This material-spirit-world is a dynamic and intuitive field, in which hybrid, fantastic images, constructed of materials, plastic objects and sound are formed and altered by the human body, acting within and between them.

​

Objects, body-extensions, raw materials both organic and non-organic,and the human body of the performers create the visual world of the piece. Voice, sound and music merge and intervene in the making of fantastic, mythological images – constructing and deconstructing their narratives and forming.

 

The conceptual scope of the project rests on the parallel I see between the roles of witches and the roles of artists in society, particularly stage artists, dancers and performance artists. This analogy highlights anew the work of performance as a 'casting of spell' and as a field of agency with magical and transformative power, capable of altering consciousness.
