[about the showing]
O
mighty armed one, seeing Your magnificent form of manifold faces and
eyes, manifold arms, legs and feet, manifold stomachs and manifold
terrifying teeth; all the planets tremble in fear and so do I. -
Mahabarata
Is the body a part of its surrounding, or is the surrounding a part of the body?
Is the body a part of its surrounding, or is the surrounding a part of the body?
During
a residency at Kunst en Complex, Sato Endo and Nicola Unger did
research on how a visual story can be told through weaving video
projection of still images with projection of human and object shapes. A
live performer interacts with the projection. The still images are body
images, maps and archive images of the river Schie near Delfshaven.
The
outcome of this research will be further developed for a final project
happening in summer 2014: MERGE is a site-specific project in which
video projection, a house on the Schie, its surrounding and a performer
on a boat will be integrated into a performance on water.
