Inspiration of the day: Amabie (アマビエ) a legendary Japanese mermaid or merman with three legs, who allegedly emerges from the sea and prophesies either an abundant harvest or an epidemic.

A video study from the artist performer Alyza DelPan-Monley

Study 3 - Multitude - Doors and Drawers

‘To make this compilation of his and byes, I had to edit out all the footage of me placing the camera inside of the closets and shutting the door. This made it possible to create the effect that the phone was it’s own entity existing with its own perspective and viewership and that I would stumble upon it, but it was there long before and long after I entered and exited.’

Liminale Fase II

OFFICIALLY BEGINS !!

[inside-liminale]

Ieri ho avuto il piacere di fare una chiacchierata virtuale con tre delle danzatrici della prima fase del progetto Liminale. 

Ascoltate Clotilde, Rosaria e Sara che ci raccontano la loro storia e soprattutto le loro sensazioni ed esperienze di questo esperimento virtuale guidate da Alice Gosti. 

[inside-liminale]

Last week question was “What is your favorite part/place/room/forniture in your house?” Here you can read a few answers from our online audience

[inside-liminale]

Entriamo ufficialmente nell’ultima settimana della prima fase di workshop di Liminale con un breve estratto dell’esplorazione della settimana passata. Abbiamo esplorato i vari spazi delle casa, notando come essi influenzano il movimento e lo mutano da quotidiano a performativo.

#BlackLivesMatter (2)

InSide-Liminale, Alice ed io, sosteniamo la causa del #blacklivesmatter.

Sia come individui che come collettivo di lavoro, siamo impegnati nella lotta contro qualsiasi tipologia di razzismo. Ci stiamo attivamente mettendo all’opera su come possiamo sostenere la nostra comunità sia negli Stati Uniti che a livello internazionale. E’ nostro compito interrogarci sul nostro rapporto con le questioni politiche, razziali ed economiche e indagare su come il nostro lavoro può portare verso il cambiamento. Non abbiamo delle risposte, ma vogliamo apportare il nostro contributo.

Queste sono alcune risorse che abbiamo raccolto e che vorremmo condividere con voi come strumento di sostegno e di apprendimento in merito al tema.

#BlackLivesMatter (1)

InSide-Liminale, Alice and myself  wholeheartedly believe that #blacklivesmatter.

We stand with Black People now and always. We are committed to the work of undoing racism. We are in active discussions about how we can support our community both in the United States and internationally. We need to continue to investigate our relationship to the political and racial and economic issues and investigate how our work can bring us towards change.  We don’t have the answers, but we want to explicitly say that we care.

These are some resources we gather and that we would like to share with you as a tool of supporting and learning:
