Jota Mombaça – sinking could be
Galleria Trasformatori – 45′
sinking could be prosegue un ciclo di recenti progetti installativi in cui Mombaça lavora con un assemblaggio di materiali, tra cui luce blu, suono e tessuti di cotone, per comunicare “una pratica di percezione degli elementi”. Questa pratica si muove con – e attraverso – i corpi d’acqua: dalla laguna veneziana all’arcipelago del Mar Baltico di Stoccolma fino ai canali di Amsterdam. Per sinking could be, Mombaça estende questa indagine materiale alla linea costiera e alla fluidità della sabbia, evocando la presenza del lago Sloterplas, minato al fine di estrarre la sabbia necessaria alla costruzione delle Western Garden Cities di Amsterdam. Una duna conserva memoria dell’oceano? La sabbia ricorda l’abbraccio dell’acqua? Sommerse tra le dune di sinking could be, emergono sculture in metallo tagliate dalla pressione dell’acqua seguendo le linee disegnate dall’artista, e successivamente avvolte in tessuti di cotone. Le sculture sono state immerse nel canale adiacente alla Rijksakademie di Amsterdam per la durata di due settimane.
sinking could be continues a cycle of recent installation projects in which Mombaça works with an assembly of materials including blue light, sound, and cotton textiles to inform ‘a practice of elemental sensing.’ This practice moves with, and across, bodies of water, from the Venetian lagoon to Stockholm’s Baltic Sea archipelago and most recently, Amsterdam’s canals. For sinking could be, Mombaça extends this material enquiry to the shoreline and the fluidity of sand, evoking the presence of the Sloterplas lake, mined for sand to build Amsterdam’s Western Garden Cities. Does a dune remember the ocean; does sand recall water’s embrace? Submerged within the dunes of sinking could be are a group of metal sculptures, cut by pressurized water to the lines of the artist’s drawings and wrapped with cotton textiles. For a period of two weeks, the sculptures are submerged in the canal next to the Rijksakademie, Amsterdam, where Mombaça is currently in residence.
Jota Mombaça is an interdisciplinary artist whose work unfolds in a variety of mediums. The sonic and visual matter of words plays an important role in their practice, which often relates to anti-colonial critique and gender disobedience. Their work has been presented in several institutional frameworks, such as the 32nd and 34th São Paulo Biennale (2016 and 2020/2021), the 22nd Sydney Biennale (2020), the 10th Berlin Biennale (2018), and the 46th Salon Nacional de Artistas in Colombia (2019). Currently, they have been interested in researching elemental forms of sensing, anti-colonial imagination, and the relation between opacity and self-preservation in the experience of racialized trans artists in the Global Art World.

Florin Flueras – Collapse Yoga
Galleria Trasformatori – 30′
Collapse Yoga mescola lo Yoga con stati considerati “negativi” come tristezza, malattia, ansia, disperazione, preoccupazione, rinuncia, esaurimento, lutto, noia, decrepitezza, dolore, fallimento, paura e con le tracce che questi lasciano nel corpo. Gli obiettivi dello Yoga quali coordinazione, equilibrio, forza, linearità, flessibilità, allineamento, controllo, entrano in collisione con i alcuni reconditi desideri corporei quali asimmetria, scoordinazione, debolezza, rilassamento, libertà, squilibrio, abbandono, collasso. Questa mescolanza Influisce sulla normatività della forma umana. Il Collapse Yoga viene talvolta praticato accanto a edifici e monumenti intimidatori, in spazi pubblici carichi di significati, associati a rigidità culturali, etiche dannose o politiche negative. Può metterci in sintonia con ambienti naturali, sociali e personali in collasso influenzando, forse, alcuni di essi. Il rapporto che abbiamo con il nostro corpo tende a estendersi alla realtà circostante: c’è corrispondenza e reciproca influenza tra la politica del corpo e i problemi della società.
Florin Flueras (1978, Romania) considera la sua pratica recente come affect art. Il suo lavoro tocca gli ambiti della politica, della filosofia, della spiritualità, della sanità, dei media, dell’educazione, della letteratura, provando a intaccarne certezze e convenzioni. Ha collaborato con Alina Popa per creare ambienti artistici alternativi (Artworlds: Unsorcery, Clinica, Black Hyperbox), e con Ion Dumitrescu (Postspectacle). In opere come Art Opening, crea uno spazio dedicato all’apertura dell’arte in termini di formato, contenuti ed estetica. In Love, Unexperiences, Unimages, Unhere ha esplorato situazioni e capacità corporee che agiscono in modo “meta”, cercando possibilità per influenzare ciò che è possibile pensare, vedere e sentire in contesti diversi. In alcune sedi, le sue performance appaiono senza invito (come in Unofficial Unworks).
Collapse Yoga mixes Yoga with possible “negative” states as sadness, illness, anxiety, hopelessness, worry, renouncement, exhaustion, grief, boredom, decrepitude, pain, failure, fear and their traces in the body. It collides Yoga’s aims for coordination, balance, strength, straightness, flexibility, alignment, control with the body’s deep desires for asymmetry, incoordination, weakness, relaxation, freedom, unbalance, abandon, collapse. It affects the normativity of the human form. Collapse Yoga is sometimes practiced next to intimidating buildings, monuments, in charged public spaces associated with cultural stiffness, harmful ethics or bad politics. It can tune our bodies with natural, social and personal collapsing environments, affecting maybe some of them. The relation with our own bodies tends to extend to the entire reality – there is a correspondence and influence between the body’s politics and society’s problems.
Florin Flueras’ work expands into spheres of politics, philosophy, spirituality, health care, media, education, literature – affecting conventions and certainties, producing performative meetings between art and its outside. In Artwork he transforms works into practices, composing a “method” in the format of somatic / spiritual methods. With Alina Popa he created alternative art environments, artworks as Artworlds (Unsorcery, Clinica, Black Hyperbox). With Ion Dumitrescu he initiated Postspectacle, a practice of applying performative tools outside art, like in Candidate’s presidential campaign. In Art Opening he aims for temporary zones of possibility, for art openings at the levels of formats, contents and aesthetics. In Love, Unexperiences, Unimages, Unhere, he explores body situations and capacities that act meta, affecting what underlies the conceptual and perceptual, what is possible to think, see and feel in different contexts. In some venues they appear uninvited – Unofficial Unworks. He’s often transferring performative approaches between his writing and his works. More than visual or conceptual, Florin sees his recent practice as affect art.

Tarek Lakhrissi – Spiraling
Turbina 2 – 7′
Spiraling (2021) è il nuovo film di Tarek Lakhrissi prodotto in collaborazione con la Shedhalle di Zurigo. Ispirato all’opera iconica di Félix González-Torres Untitled (Go-Go Dancing Platform) del 1991 e girato in una galleria della Haus der Kunst, Spiraling contrasta l’architettura autoritaria dell’edificio con la potente metafora della spirale. I movimenti rotatori della ballerina Mila Furie, attivista per i diritti delle persone queer e night performer, si sovrappongono a un racconto di formazione in poesia, narrato dalla voce di Lakhrissi. Il film può essere letto come una seduzione che utilizza la poesia, l’erotismo e la cultura pop per invertire lo sguardo dominante e le relazioni di potere. (Haus der Kunst, Echoes) raccoglie testi scritti tra il 2016 e il 2022 sui temi che strutturano il lavoro dell’artista come la lotta, il corpo, il linguaggio e l’esperienza queer della minoranza.
Lakhrissi has developed Spiraling (2021), a new film co-produced in collaboration with the Shedhalle Zurich. Inspired by Félix González-Torres’s iconic work “Untitled” (Go-Go Dancing Platform) from 1991 and filmed in a gallery of the Haus der Kunst, Spiraling counters the building’s authoritarian architecture with the powerful metaphor of the spiral. The gyrating movements of dancer Mila Furie, a queer rights activist and night performer, overlap with Lakhrissi’s voice poetically recounting a coming-of-age story. The film reads like a seduction that uses poetry, eroticism, and pop culture to invert the prevailing controlling gaze and power relations. (Haus der Kunst, Echoes)

Teatro e realtà, arte e attivismo: delle intersezioni tra questi territori si occupano i volumi ACT? della rivista “Stratagemmi”. Il terzo capitolo di questa serie è dedicato a Rabih Mroué e alla ricerca portata avanti insieme alla regista e performer Lina Majdalanie: ricorrendo a una pluralità di linguaggi e ibridando la perfomance con l’arte visuale e il dispositivo della conferenza, l’artista libanese sfrangia i confini tra spazio del pubblico e spazio della scena, tra realtà e finzione, tra drammaturgia e documento.
Theatre and reality, art and activism: the intersections between these territories are dealt with in the ACT? volumes linked to the magazine ‘Stratagemmi’. The third chapter of this series is dedicated to Rabih Mroué and the research carried out together with the director and performer Lina Majdalanie: by resorting to a plurality of languages and hybridising performance with visual art and the lecture device, the Lebanese artist fractures the boundaries between audience space and stage space, between reality and fiction, between dramaturgy and document.

Lola Olufemi – Towards an experimental method
Terme – 60′
La lecture sarà tenuta in lingua inglese / The lecture will be held in English
ph. Robin Christian
Pensate a come un cerchio – linee arrotondate che partono da un punto fisso – sembra continuare ad andare avanti e avanti. Questa potrebbe essere la chiave del nostro metodo.
Questo intervento riflette sull’uso dell’immaginazione nelle forme della produzione culturale “Black” e sulle possibilità di un impegno metodologico con essa. Presenterà l’immaginazione come uno strumento modulabile per pensare e realizzare contro le logiche del capitale e del confinamento.
Lola Olufemi è una scrittrice femminista nera e ricercatrice della Fondazione Stuart Hall di Londra, con sede presso il Centro per la Ricerca e l’Educazione in Arte e Media dell’Università di Westminster. Il suo lavoro si concentra sugli usi dell’immaginario femminista e sul suo rapporto con la produzione culturale, le rivendicazioni politiche e il futuro. È autrice di Feminism Interrupted: Disrupting Power (Pluto Press, 2020), Experiments in Imagining Otherwise (Hajar Press, 2021) ed è membro di “bare minimum”, un collettivo artistico interdisciplinare anti-lavoro.
Think of how a circle, rounded lines from a fixed point, seems to keep going and going. That could be key to our method.
This intervention reflects on the uses of the imagination in forms of black cultural production and the possibilities of methodological engagement with it. It will present the imagination as a scalable tool for thinking and making against the logics of capital and confinement.

Yoojin Lee – slowth (habitats) (yet)
Live Works Fellow
Forgia – 45′
Stretta prossimità con il pubblico / Close proximity to the public
Yoojin Lee è un’artista Coreana di base a Londra, lavora tra performance, suono, testo, installazioni e video per incarnare modi di diventare e di conoscere attraverso la cura, la resistenza e le diverse temporalità. Il suo lavoro si confronta con le condizioni di (in)attività e (dis)produttività, in particolare pensandosi e sentendosi attraverso il sonno, la pigrizia e la lentezza. La sua performance slowth (habitats) (yet) si sviluppa dalla relazione simbiotica tra i bradipi e l’alga Trichophilus welckeri che cresce nella loro pelliccia. Il set della performance è una trama di oggetti e luci tra i quali si fanno spazio il corpo e la voce di Yoojin Lee. E ancora frequenze elettroniche, manifesti, testi, resti di parti elettriche ed elettroniche dismesse. L’artista indossa una tuta abitata da microrganismi fotosintetici -tra cui alghe e cianobatteri-, che cambia colorazione e stato di giorno in giorno. La performance vuole essere una riflessione sull’accelerazione della crescita capitalistica, attraverso pensieri e pratiche sciamanico-animista coreane.
slowth (habitats)(yet), takes the symbiotic relationship between sloths, sloth moths and the algae Trichophilus welckeri as a point of departure. It weaves together the contacts between the body, voice, electronic frequencies, ‘banner-habitats’, text, remnants of discarded electrical and electronic parts, encountered locations, garment entangled with photosynthetic microorganisms including algae and cyanobacteria. The process of and the approach within the work are guided by Korean shamanist/animist thoughts and practices, and questions on capitalist acceleration and growth. slowth (habitats)(yet) thickens and decomposes, always in relation to the multiplicity of beings and their rhythms that it encounters. It is a habitat that is always becoming, slowly. A constellation of beings, energies and temporalities that may evade being fixed, captured and harnessed. Who might be these beings, energies and temporalities? How to imagine symbiotic tenderness beyond, but also underneath and in-between, capitalist time and speed?
Yoojin Lee works across and in-between performance, sound, text, installation and video to embody ways of becoming and knowing through care, resistance and multiple temporalities. Her work engages with conditions of (in)activity and (un)productivity; particularly by thinking/feeling through sleep, sloth and slowness. How can sleep and a sleeping body become a site of quiet resistance? How can slow, symbiotic tenderness disrupt the timescape of linear temporality? She sleeps in London.

Teo Ala-Ruona & Artor Jesus Inkerö – SLIT
Live Works Fellows
Sala Comando – 45′
Stretta prossimità con il pubblico / Close proximity to the public
Insieme, per Centrale Fies, lavorano sulla voce creando linguaggi non codificati, canzoni, suoni che creano connessioni tra loro, col pubblico e nello spazio. Anche quando “le loro dita affondano nelle gole, spezzandone il suono.” In scena due ragazzi dai corpi atletici trovano il modo di attingere al tenero ritmo di una performance. Quando toccano l’uno le corde vocali dell’altro, spingendo le mani nelle loro gole, le dita vengono accolte dalla stretta della gola, incapaci di produrre un suono. Che si tratti di una semplice canzone, di un canto mormorato o di una calda espressione di gioia, producono un linguaggio del non codificato, della vulnerabilità, della stranezza – un linguaggio che rispecchia l’io interiore ed esteriore. Passando attraverso paesaggi sonori e posture mutevoli, cercano di manipolare le persone e lo spazio che li circondano. SLIT è interpretato da Artor Jesus Inkerö e Teo Ala-Ruona. Il lavoro è coreografato in collaborazione con Eve Stainton. Il paesaggio sonoro è stato realizzato da Minna Koivisto e dall’assistente al suono Juuli Haverinen. Il disegno dei costumi è di Ervin Latimer.
Amidst the traditional human condition, two athletic boy tropes find a way to tap into a tender beat of a performance called SLIT. As they touch each other’s vocal chords by pushing their hands down their throats, the fingers are greeted with the grasp of the throat, unable to produce a sound. Whether it be a plain song, a humming chant, a joyous warm expression, the performers produce a language of uncodedness, of vulnerability, of strangeness – a language of mirroring inner and outer selves for their audience. Cycling through soundscapes and shifting postures, they attempt to manipulate their surrounding people and space. SLIT is performed by Artor Jesus Inkerö and Teo Ala-Ruona. The work is choreographed in collaboration with Eve Stainton. The sound design is made by Minna Koivisto and a sound assistant Juuli Haverinen. The costume design is made by Ervin Latimer.
Artor Jesus Inkerö is a Finnish visual artist whose works have been exhibited in New Museum in New York, NOON Projects in Los Angeles, Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma in Helsinki, and Kunsthal Charlottenborg in Copenhagen. They have participated in artist residencies, such as the Somerset House in London and the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam. In their art practice, Artor Jesus Inkerö focuses on topics of queer identity and belonging through exhibitions, performances and public art works and projects. In addition to their creative work, Inkerö was invited as a consultant for the committee for the future at the Finnish Parliament and is a board member at AV-Arkki, a Finnish media art library.
Teo Ala-Ruona is a Finnish performance artist, whose work has recently been shown in The Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, VEGA|ARTS in Copenhagen, HAM Art Museum in Helsinki, Baltic Circle-festival in Helsinki and Gas-gallery in Los Angeles. Recently he participated in an artist residency in FABRIKKEN for Art and Design in Copenhagen. Ala-Ruona’s work focuses on speculative fiction in forms of performances that combine somatofictional practices, movement and various vocal techniques. He explores topics of sex, queer ecology, toxicity and gender. By using his own body as a site for the various speculative stories to take place, he experiments with how, through fiction, he can transform himself, as well as the perspectives from which others look at his body.

Rabih Mroué, Lina Majdalanie & Mazen Kerbaj – Borborygmus
Guest Artists
Turbina 1 – 80′
Presenza di luci strobosopiche e linguaggio esplicito / Presence of strobosopic lights and explicit language
Ciascuna delle sequenze di Borborygmus, pur avendo la propria cornice indipendente, apre una nuova finestra su quella successiva. Il processo ricorda il modo in cui ogni racconto delle Mille e una notte è del tutto indipendente, eppure le diverse storie si fondono insieme nel piacere di immaginare un tempo lontano.
In questa performance, tuttavia, l’esperienza del tempo è costantemente radicata nel presente. Ognuno dei tre performers comunica questa esperienza attraverso le manifestazioni amplificate del suono. Non c’è da stupirsi che le sequenze si sviluppino dal ticchettio dei cronometri al tuonare della musica orchestrale: l’espressione umana ineguagliata dell’arte del tempo. Da quel momento in poi, i suoni assumono un andamento magico che ci acceca con una luce lampeggiante. In questa Babele di suoni e lampi, il significato si riduce a un mormorio. Il sacro e il profano diventano una cosa sola.
Ringraziamento speciale a Festival delle Colline Torinesi e Laura Bevione
Borborygmus:
1. A gurgling, rumbling, or squeaking noise from the abdomen that is caused by the movement of gas through the bowels
2. A sound indicating shortage or saturation
3. An unintelligible discours
4. An embarrassing – albeit not dangerous – situation
5. A play about all the above and more
While every sequence in Borborygmus has its independent frame, each of them opens a new window on that which follows. The process reminds of how each tale in the Thousand and One Nights is wholly independent and yet the different tales blend together in the delight of imagining a distant time.
In this performance, however, the experience of time is constantly the present. Each of the 3 performers communicates that experience through the amplified manifestations of sound. No wonder that the sequences unfold from the ticking of chronometers to the thundering of orchestral music: humanity’s unrivaled expression of the art of time. From there on, sounds take on a magical course that blinks and blinds us with light. In this Babel of sounds and lightening, meaning is reduced to mumbling. The holy and the profane become one.
Coming out of tormented guts, Borborygmus does not only document our time on earth, but it spells out the experience of exile and longing devouring all outcasts.
Special thanks to Festival delle Colline Torinesi and Laura Bevione

Soukaina Abrour – Mra7ba (mrhba)*
Agitu Ideo Gudeta Fellow

Presenza di fumo scenografico / Smoke machine will be used
Selezionata per la fellowship per artiste e artisti italiani razzializzati, nominata ad Agitu Ideo Gudeta, Soukaina Abrour -nata in Marocco ma residente e cresciuta in Italia- è alla sua prima creazione performativa: una fabulazione speculativa che prende forma in una performance/installazione. Ambientata in uno scenario postumano di decadenza, trae la sua ispirazione immaginativa da Al-Halqa (nota anche come “Al-Halqa al-Safiya” o “il Cerchio Puro”), una forma d’arte tradizionale di narrazione che ha avuto origine nel mondo arabo, un dispositivo di teatro in strada e nelle piazze che vedeva l’attore al centro di un cerchio fare delle azioni a favore del pubblico. L’artista porta avanti un’indagine sulla perdita di senso e sull’incomunicabilità, sul loro legame con le varie trasformazioni del sé e la relazione di queste nella collettività.
Mra7ba (mrhba)* is a speculative fabulation with an installative and performative shape. Set in a decadent posthuman scenario, it takes its imaginative inspiration from Al-Halqa (also known as “Al-Halqa al-Safiya” or “the Pure Circle”), a traditional storytelling art that originated in the Arab world. It involves a performer/storyteller in a public place and an audience.
My work takes this situation and speculates about its end and its replacement by simulacrums, just kinda mimicking what we were, endlessly.
In this scenario the audience is a time traveler, welcomed – at the entrance to the room – by a joyful, chaotic, colourful, orgiastic, sinister, mutant, video spot that explains what to expect inside the room, in the circle, in the Halqa.
What is really inside, seems not so joyful.
Soukaina Abrour born in Morocco in 1997 and raised in Italy since 2000. Graduated from Accademia delle Belle Arti in Venice in 2022. In artistic residency between two cultural realities: Centrale Fies, with the Agitu Ideo Gudeta fellowship, in collaboration with Razzismo Brutta Storia and BHMF, and the art residency promoted by Milano Mediterranea. She brings forth an investigation into the loss of meaning and incommunicability, their connection to the various transformations of the self and the relation of these in the collective. Taking different forms, her works create connections between memory, the construction of the self – as far as history and identity are concerned – with a present moment that is made up of living experiences and forthcoming desires. These spaces of thought and action are translated into an imaginative hypothesis of a future that is wedged between the nostalgia of a history never really experienced and its total disappearance.

Uno scrittore nato a Beirut e una scrittrice berlinese, appassionati di storia e passato così come di fiction e futuri, mettono in scena per Live Works un loro testo originale titolato Permanent Trespass Beirut of the Balkans and the American Century. La sceneggiatura vede due figure che tessono elogi funebri, e che si trovano in una situazione di fiction in un’epoca in disfacimento non molto distante dalla nostra realtà.
La performance denuncia le discipline storiche come “insidiosamente incomplete”, mettendo in discussione le rappresentazioni di guerra e giustizia attuali e passate. Scavando nelle storie di vari paesi, chiamano in causa gli aggressori suprematisti, le loro vittime, e la Corte penale internazionale, in un racconto che travalica ere, stati e luoghi spazio-temporali.
In Permanent Trespass (Beirut of the Balkans and the American Century), two traveling eulogists meet on a dire tableau: something like our contemporary moment or crumbling epoch. First-person monologues oscillate between formal registers towards a performance within a performance, that of a commissioned funerary text. Who or what is being mourned against a backdrop of incommensurate cruelty? Fantasized digressions hint at jumps in time toward a revolution forever deferred.
Bassem Saad is an artist and writer born in Beirut. Their work explores notions of historical rupture, spontaneity, and surplus, through film, performance, and sculpture, alongside essays and fiction. With an emphasis on past and present forms of struggle, they attempt to place scenes of intersubjective exchange within their world-historical frames.
Sanja Grozdanić is a writer living in Berlin. Her writing is particularly concerned with issues of memory, dispossession, and deviance, and the slippages between public and private grief, anxiety and imagination.

Thalia Pigier – The One who leaves is not gone
Live Works Fellow
Turbina 2 – 55′
Presenza di nudo in scena / Presence of nude scenes
Thalia Pigier è una performer e coreografa di padre francese e madre colombiana e di sé e della sua famiglia racconterà anche nella performance presentata a Live Works. Sul tema della trasmissione delle origini si potrebbe dire tanto, ma Thalia Piegier preferisce farsi domande, per esempio su come la sua cumbia non sia quella danzata dalla mamma e dalla nonna, bensì irrimediabilmente diversa, nonostante porti tracce del passato e delle persone che gliela hanno tramandata. “The One who leaves is not gone” è una performance intima che affronta, tra gli altri, il tema delle eredità emotive, culturali, relazionali e familiari. La performance è un insieme di link e collegamenti che si accendono in maniera rizomatica nello spazio: una pianta, un costume tradizionale, degli aeroplanini di carta. L’artista cita, attraverso dei video, il performer Gino de Dominicis (volare, nel 1969), che si riprende mentre si esercita a spiccare il volo, sicuro che se avesse continuato per tutta la vita, figli e nipoti ne avrebbero raccolto l’esperienza e avrebbero potuto imparare davvero a volare.
“Following the trail of past memories, in search of the traces left by the places we’ve been, the people we’ve met. I wonder how the different sedimentations of life are deposited in us, in what form and for how long. What remains of the starting point as we move on? What is this dance that I dance?
Working with paper airplanes, using their movement as inspiration for my choreography, their landing points are checkpoints of memories around which I walk miles of real or fantasized life.
Fascinated by our capacity of always making sense out of things, I created a hyperlink dramaturgy to experiment on that, weaving unexpected associations between words, sounds and movement. Researching the questions of origins and identity, asking myself as a half-French, half-Colombian woman, what is the dance that I dance because my cumbia isn’t the cumbia my mother and grand-mother used to dance. Therefore, it’s both questioning transmission and origins that my performance The One who leaves is not gone came to life. I relate my work to Gino de Dominicis’s attempt to fly in 1969. He believed that if he trained everyday for the rest of his life and passed his training to his children and grand-children, at some point, humans would be able to fly just like we learnt how to swim.
In this autobiographical performance I ask myself what’s left from the places we’ve been and the people we’ve met.
What remains of what’s been passed on to us as we move through the world?
What is this dance that I dance?
Embracing the topics of cultural legacy, body’s memory and the rewriting of our personal memories, The One who leaves is not gone travels in space and time, through history, intimate stories and scientific fun facts.”
Thalia Pigier is a half-French half-Colombian performer and choreographer. She holds a master’s degree in dramaturgy from l’Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon. After studying Stage direction in Rio de Janeiro, she started training and researching contemporary dance. In 2018, she did a research residency at ICI-CCN Montpellier where she created her first performance Journey to the underworld of research. She continued training in Brussels where she created the short piece The Girl in the bag questioning sizes and gender within a dance duo at Tictac Art center and Attempt to fly n°2.
As a performer she’s been working with David Zambrano, Marco Berrettini and Nathalie Béasse, and she will perform in Arnaud Pirault’s new creation Les Garçons Perdu.es in 2024. In 2021 she created her own dance company, Projet Total and she’s been developing it since then, (BATTEMENTS 1, 2021, Midnight’s Sun 2021, Leftovers’ Solo 2022). Choreographer of the Incubator of La Fabrique de la Danse, laureate of the Adami/Micadanses grant in 2021 and of the Danceweb scholarship in 2022, she was selected to be part of the Europe Creative project of interdisciplinary research Circus without Circus led by Theaters in Belgium, France, Denmark and Croatia until 2023.
Last winter, she was commissioned a dance performance for Mellemrum, a site specific event curated by Kitt Johnson. She created Restless with Villads Buggebang, between the stones of Thy National Park, in Denmark.

Endi Tupja – All the missing caregivers or Fascismo all’Acqua di Rose
Live Works Fellow
Forgia – 30′
Stretta prossimità con il pubblico / Close proximity to the public
Endi Tupja è un’artista albanese, che vive tra Tirana e Berlino. Per il suo progetto selezionato da LIVE WORKS, l’artista approfondisce la sua ricerca sulle tecniche di scrittura performativa e di messa in scena di donne albanesi nel contesto italiano, oscillando tra gli anni ’30 , gli anni ’90 e il presente. L’artista utilizza la (de)spettacolarizzazione e la dirompenza di diverse forme interconnesse e sottomesse di aree sud-mediterranee per riflettere sul genere, sulla prossimità, sul travaglio e sul periferico, frammentando così dall’interno lo spazio delle proiezioni (post)imperiali italiane. La ricerca di questa artista si concentra sulla sperimentazione di strategie di recupero della memoria, sulla visualità e sulla geomorfometria sovvertita che influenza l’identità e la storia. Nel suo lavoro si percepisce chiaramente un continuo tentativo di sfidare certe idee di formalità istituzionale nella ricerca artistica e nel linguaggio accademico.
Endi Tupja will broaden further her research in performative writing and staging techniques of Albanian female voices in the Italian context oscillating between the 1930s, 1990s and the present. The (de)spectacularization and disruptiveness of different interrelated and subjugated forms of mediterranean south(s) are vehicles she uses to reflect on gender, proximity, labor, and the peripheral. Thus fragmenting space from the inside out of Italian (post)imperial projections.
Endi Tupja is an artist, filmmaker, and cultural practitioner based between Berlin and Tirana. Her research centers on experimenting with strategies of memory recuperation, visuality and the subverted geomorphometry influencing identity and history. A continuous attempt to challenge certain ideas of institutional formality in artistic research and academic language, are clearly perceivable throughout her work. She is currently part of the Fellowship Program for Art and Theory at Künstlerhaus Büchsenhausen in Innsbruck (Austria). She was awarded a CAS SEE fellowship by the Regional Center For Advanced Studies at the University of Rijeka (Croatia) for her research on the project All the Missing Caregivers.

Harald Beharie – Batty Bwoy
Guest artist
Turbine – 80′
Presenza di nudo in scena / Presence of nude scenes
Harald Beharie (he/they) è artista di origini norvegesi e giamaicane e residente a Oslo. La sua pratica attraversa vari formati e contesti mettendo fortemente in discussione le nozioni di normatività. Batty Bwoy è una performance in collaborazione con Karoline Bakken Lund, Veronica Bruce, Jassem Hindi e Ring van Möbius, che prende ispirazione dagli stereotipi, dalle emozioni e dalle fantasie sui corpi e le identità queer. Il lavoro ha trovato ispirazione nelle mitologie, negli stereotipi disgustosi, nei sentimenti e nelle fantasie del corpo e delle identità queer, nei testi omofobici delle dancehall, nei film gialli italiani degli anni ’70, nelle “gully queens” resistenti e nelle voci queer della Norvegia e della Giamaica che hanno visitato e preso parte al processo.
Batty Bwoy is a solo performance in collaboration with Karoline Bakken Lund, Veronica Bruce, Jassem Hindi, and Ring van Mobius. Through a reappropriation of the Jamaican term “Batty Bwoy” (literally, butt boy), slang for a queer person, the work twists and turns the myths of the queer body to invoke demonic sensitivities and charming cruelties, unfolding vulnerable possibilities in an interplay of consciousness and naivety. The horror and joy of Batty Bwoy, inherent to queer blackness, is unmasked. Scrutinizing the absurdity of a queer monstrosity, Batty Bwoy articulates through the porosity of bodies and languages, their mouths swallowing and regurgitating the corporal fictions projected onto their skins.
Batty Bwoy attacks and embraces sedimented narratives around the fear of the queer body as a perverse and deviant figure. The expression “Batty Bwoy” is used to evoke an ambivalent creature that exists in the threshold of the precarious body, liberated power, joy, and batty energy! The work has found inspiration in mythologies, disgusting stereotypes, feelings, and fantasies of the queer body and identities, homophobic dancehall lyrics, 70s Giallo films from Italy, resilient “gully queens,” and queer voices in Norway and Jamaica that have visited and taken part of the process. The project is a co-production with Dansens Hus, Oslo, and RAS, Sandnes, and premiered on January 20th, 2022.
Harald Beharie (he/they) is a Norwegian-Jamaican performer and choreographer based in Oslo. While applying various formats and contexts his practice looks into alternative modes of being, dancing and existing together while questioning notions of normativity. Harald holds an interest for the unpolished, the DIY and vulnerability of being in the unknowing. His choreographic practice unfolds in various constellations with other artists using dance as a medium for creating elusive spaces of ambivalence and fantasy, oscillating between deconstruction and construction, optimism and doubt, apathy and affect. Some of the leading interests in his work at the moment are dissecting known physical narratives and opening for a conscious naivety and playfulness while indulging into practice of the pathetic, collapsing, joyful, failing and persistent body. Harald’s focus is being with local people, local ideas, and developing ideas with and within the community. Harald’s work has received nominations for the Norwegian Critics Association prize for the performances Shine Utopians with Louis Schou (2020) and the solo work Batty Bwoy (2022).

Alice Giuliani and Camilla Strandhagen – And everything is as porous as a bodily crack
Live Works Fellows
Mezzelune – 60′
Presenza di fumo scenografico / Smoke machine will be used
Alice Giuliani e Camilla Strandhagen si sono incontrate due anni fa a Bruxelles. La performance che presenteranno a Centrale Fies contiene tracce e ispirazioni da testi e teorie che indagano il dolore invisibile di alcune malattie croniche, intrecciate alle loro esperienze personali. La performance attraversa tre capisaldi teorici come il concetto della Spoon Theory, metafora che descrive la quantità di energia fisica e mentale che una persona ha a disposizione per le attività quotidiane, quando è limitata (Christine Miserandino, 2003 “The Spoon Theory”); la crip-time, la relazione col tempo che le persone con disabilità sperimentano, dai tempi morti che i luoghi meno accessibili impongono, a quelli delle persone con stanchezze croniche consumano il tempo di una persona; la Sick Woman Theory di Johanna Hedva, che vede le modalità di protesta politica femminile interiorizzate come sofferenze reali. A tessere queste esperienze tra teoria e vissuto reale di ragazze con malattie invisibili croniche, c’è proprio la loro ricerca performativa.
And everything is as porous as a bodily crack is a place of soft dramaturgy, where time pours into its own pace and where two spoonies play each other’s guardian and unveil their hidden scars. Alicé and Kmila travel through intimate, sci-fi, distorted galaxies to talk about that which is so hard to explain.
Alice Giuliani is an Italian crip-spoonie artist based in Brussels. She is intrigued by the body as a place of fantasy, identity and vulnerability. In the past years she collaborated as a performer for various productions in Europe mainly focused on vibrant and emotional body languages; pop & opera singing; practices to potentiate crip & spoonie superpowers. As a maker she is working on a project calle A.ROOM.POURED.OVER.ME, a live concert-performance and an intimate digital memoir around some of those invisible days of chronic pain.
Camilla Strandhagen is a performer and dance-maker from Norway, who through choreography attempts to give attention to the unstable, weak and seemingly invisible. Curious about the tension between physical and mental states, Camilla evokes temporary places, in which the body becomes a sensorial site, to experiment with ways to encounter in precariousness and wonder. Camilla and Alice met a few years ago in Brussels. And everything is as porous as a bodily crack is their first collaboration. Their spoonie sisterhood unfolds in fictional characters that investigate how chronic illness brings them closer together, to the murky borderlands and their superpowers.

Eoghan Ryan – Circle A
Live Works Fellow
Cortile Forgia – 50′
Musica a volume alto / Loud music
Questo artista irlandese sceglie di lavorare sul concetto di anarchia ponendosi una domanda: e se fosse proprio l’anarchia la risposta definitiva all’ordine? In scena tre performer si esibiscono, a fianco di un batterista, muovendosi tra le linee del simbolo dell’Anarchia disegnate col gesso sul pavimento, in un susseguirsi di azioni che vengono lasciate correre o stoppate a seconda degli eventi. Il lavoro artistico di Eoghan Ryan si snoda tra diverse discipline, dalle installazioni video alla performance, ma utilizza anche marionette e collage per narrare la sua idea si “disintegrazione degli stati di identità”. Col termine “stati” l’artista intende sia quelli dell’essere, così come le nazioni o quegli spazi in cui le consistenze e le contingenze ne cambiano la forma.
Se l’Anarchia si afferma come risposta all’ordine, Circle A di Eoghan Ryan pone l’accento sulla parola “risposta”. In altre parole significa mettercela tutta per disfare un sistema. In scena tre performer si esibiscono, a fianco di un batterista, muovendosi tra le linee del simbolo dell’Anarchia disegnate col gesso sul pavimento, in un susseguirsi di azioni che vengono lasciate correre o stoppate a seconda degli eventi.
If you’re constantly stuck in the same drama that never ends, it’s not even tragedy. It’s not a good piece of art, it’s just a bad situation!
Anarchy can be affirmed as a response to order. As such, Circle A by Eoghan Ryan puts full emphasis on the temporality of the word ‘response’. In other words, trying your hardest to undo a system.
Three performers wearing tap shoes, work within the constraints of the Circle A symbol sprayed to the floor. They are influenced by a live drummer and a deconstructed sound score composed of stems that come together and fall apart. The performers work out a tight set of actions. These actions are accompanied by lesser and greater degrees of agency; so how they interrelate in a system for a live audience becomes somewhat unpredictable. That’s why they need to experiment, for 45 minutes, eliminating codification from all but one emergent, anticipatory level.
Eoghan Ryan works with video installation, performance, puppetry and collage to address the disintegration of states of identity. These range from states of being and nation states to the cultivation of provisional culture, in art as much as bacteria. Eoghan’s performances have been shown at Kunstfort bij Vijfhuizen, Amsterdam Dance Event, Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten; IMMA, Dublin; Serralves, Porto in collaboration with Jassem Hindi; Catalyst, Belfast; Chisenhale Dance Space; Kem, Warsaw; Cubbit Gallery and Rowing; London amongst others. Recent commissions and screenings have taken place at Busan Biennale, ICA, London and IFFR Rotterdam. Eoghan’s performance commission for Live Works is supported by Mondriaan Fonds.
