Going Through Thoroughly
(circle dance)
On Sunday afternoon, we gather for Rest(s) with Alix Eynaudi, a (deep) choreographic hanging out session, where among others, we practice ‘slipping words under the skin’.
In her ‘listening circle’, Eliana Otta considers objects of loss, mourning practices and transformative politics based on her research in Greece and Peru, then hosts us in the ‘sensorial tent’ for a session of drawing, movement, and immersion in silence to explore the possibilities of collective mending.
A ‘sonic interruption’ by experimental musician Peter Kutin brings us back to the space of Halle G, which Gáddjá Haarla Pieski invites us to scan thoroughly. Her ‘circle dance’ revolves around the sense of place and pushes against the walls that enclose us. Let’s imagine that we are out in the open, perhaps on a mountaintop and if we spin or twirl, we create a 360-degree horizon.
dances, works and writes between craft and chaos in a (most of the time) joyful mess. She doesn’t work alone; any event, research, or invitation is an alibi to spend time with accomplices, a mesh of friendships scintillating under skins, a stirring of full-of-wonder support. She specialises in (deep) choreographic hanging-out sessions. alixeynaudi.com
(Lima, 1981) is an artist with a Master in Cultural Studies. She creates spaces for conversation, trust and curiosity through shared intimacy with projects that involve pedagogical, curatorial and editorial work. Her current PhD project, Lost & Shared: A laboratory for collective mourning towards affective and transformative politics, investigates how art can enable the collectivisation of mourning, creating dialogues between theory and affective labour through collective experiments that connect emotions, critical thinking, body and space. She coordinated the curatorial team at Lugar de la Memoria (Museum of Memory) in Lima and has taught at Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. She co-founded the artist-run space Bisagra in Lima and belongs to the collective Mouries in Athens. She is a PhD Candidate at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna, and has an eternally amateur alter ego, dj Flaquita. eliana-otta.com
studied scenography and sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. In her sculptures and spatial settings, she questions anthropocentrism and speculates on how the co-existence of human and non-human animals, nature and technology could be articulated in the future. She embraces hybrid modes of relationship in her practice, using both organic materials and industrially produced fabrics for her objects. For TOGETHER THE PARTS, she has largely worked with and re-used elements that were previously part of other constellations. In such a way, she creates and activates material connections for the gathering that can then be transformed into new contexts.
is a performer, dancer and choreographer coming from Dálvadas, Ohcejohka (Utsjoki), from the Finnish side of Sápmi. She graduated from The Finnish National Opera Ballet School in 2019, and recently she got her Bachelor in Dance Diploma at P.A.R.T.S. Together with Biret Haarla Pieski, she created the performance Starting from Staring, which premiered in Beursschouwburg (Brussels) and will be presented in Helsinki as part of the Baltic Circle Festival. Gáddjá has also worked with visual artist Outi Pieski on the video installation Guhte Gullá at Helsinki Biennale 2021 and Marja Helander on an award-winning short film Birds in the Earth, Sundance Film Festival 2018. Currently, she is part of the performance Matriarchy by Pauliina Feodoroff, presented in the Sámi Pavilion at Venice Biennale 2022.
