” Hur låter det när tio stickare möts i ett rum?

Som ett metalliskt regn, enligt konstnären Oreet Ashery som samlade till en ljudworkshop på Lilith Performance Studio.

”För en tid sedan eftersökte performancestudion i Malmö vana stickare på Facebook. Under tisdagen dök de upp, och placerades i ett vitt rum på varsin stol. Stickorna försågs med mickar och kopplades till högtalare.

En av dem som nappade på att delta i ljudworkshopen med konstnären Oreet Ashery var Aina Jeppsson.
– Jag tyckte det verkade vara en kul grej.
Van stickare? Jo, hon har hållit på sedan 1980-talet, och har alltid något stickprojekt igång.

Ljudworkshopen är en del av tillblivelsen av ett kommande verk. Om testet med stickorna faller väl ut kommer de att ingå i performanceverket ”Passing through metal”, som äger rum på Lilith Performansce Studio 20-23 april. Oreet Ashery är en Londonbaserad konstnär som arbetar interdisciplinärt, ofta med en politisk tematik.
– Planen är att eventuellt blanda stickorna med death metal-bandet Pyramido från Malmö, säger Elin Lundgren, konstnärlig ledare på Lilith Performance Studio.
Idén bygger på två metaller som möts.

Petter Pettersson, den andra konstnärliga ledaren på studion, ger instruktioner på svenska till stickarna:
– Gå nu in i era egna tankar. Sitt helt i er egen värld.

Under tiden går Oreet Ashery runt och tar in ljudet i lokalen.

Efteråt säger stickaren Aina Jeppsson att det var mysigt men annorlunda.
– Vi fick gå in i oss själva i vår stickbubbla och bara koncentrera oss på stickning. Och konstnären var också väldigt koncentrerad. Hon fungerade lite som en dirigent.
Hur skulle du säga att det lät, där ni satt och stickade?
– Som ett metalliskt regn, sa konstnären, och det var en bra beskrivning tycker jag, säger Aina Jeppsson.”

Lilith Performance Open Call for new major visual art performances | Lilith Performance Studio 2018 -2020

Lilith Performance Studio is now welcoming visual artists to apply to Lilith Commissions with a proposal of a new major performance work, which will be realized in Malmo, Sweden, during 2018-2020. 

Lilith Performance Studio is a non-profit arts organization and an independent arena for visual art performance. The Studio initiates new exceptional visual art performances by inviting visual artists from around the world, some of whom have never worked live before.

Each year, selected artists are given the unique opportunity to realize and present a new large-scale performance on site in the studio in Malmo or elsewhere in the city, in close collaboration with the studio.

The invited artists get a great chance to explore their own artistic expression and to work in a larger scale including all aspects in creating a new art work.
Lilith selects artists with a distinctively individual artistic mode of expression and integrity when it comes to idea as well as method, artists that also share an interest in exploring their own work in relation to the studio as an experimental site. The artists are encouraged to expand their artistic vision through the use of live performance, resulting in unique productions.

During a 4-8 weeks long production period in Malmo the artists are given the opportunity to focus on all the parts of a live piece: site, time, staging, participants and audience.

The selected artists to Lilith’s Commission program will receive significant financial and production support to experiment and realize innovative new works, in close collaboration with the studio from conceptualization to presentation.
Lilith Commission will include a budget for production, research and development, artist fee, accommodation and travel expenses.

Proposals should be new, innovative large-scale works, which respond to the idea of the studio as an experimental site, and the wish to expand the artistic vision.
Applicants will be judged on the groundbreaking nature of their idea and its potential for realisation.

Lilith Performance Studio opened in 2007 in Malmo, Sweden and has since the inception created 45 commissions, several curatorial collaborations, guest appearances and festivals.
As a production space and an arena for visual art performance, the studio is the first of its kind in the world.

View all performance works on Lilith’s website: https://lilithperformancestudio.com/COMISSIONS/ARCHIVE

Who can apply? Artist from all over the world who already use live elements in their work and those who are experimenting with performance for the first time are welcome to apply.
We accept applications from emerging, mid-career and established artists working in the visual art field.

Application: ALL submissions must be sent to: info@lilithperformancestudio.com

Application must include:
1-2 proposals of new large-scale performance works.
Artist’s CV, biography and portfolio of their latest works.
Artist’s statement

Applications deadline: 1^st of May 2017

NOTE: Lilith Performance Studio will contact the artist if the project is accepted for the next step in the application. If the artist does not get a reply in the end of August, the artist is not accepted to the next step.

Liliths Elin Lundgren har blivit inbjuden att drömma om en kultursatsning inom konst inför 2017 i Sydsvenskans Dygnet Runt

Finally tonight Lundgren and Pettersson’s new performance, created at site, ”Miracle Line” will come alive at the international performance Event” Undisclosed Territory #10.

Exciting to see our lovely participators give all they got:)

Miracle Line is based on the ideas of achievements, ritual entertainment and anticipation.
Inspired by old-time circus, Lundgren and Pettersson present simple stage presentations, with help from twentyfive actors.
Horns, flags, voices and movements are used like sculptural ready-mades and form a self-playing slapstick sculpture.

Today we go for it with our lovely new Indonesian friends -The Harmonica Boy and the Island – Rock on in Solo Surakarta!!!

#undisclosedterritory10 #studioplesungan #lilithperformancestudio

Yesterday at Faculty of Art and Design, University of Maret Surakarta, artist talk about Elin Lundgren and Petter Pettersson’s artistry, nice banderol and a souvenir/ present from the faculty:)
Nice meetings, orginazied by Studio Plesungan in connection with the international performance Event – Undisclosed Territory #10.

After two weeks  of preparation in hot and rainy monsoon weather Lilith’s artistic Directors Elin Lundgren and Petter Pettersson are getting ready to perform  two performances – ”The Harmonica Boy and the Island” and ”Miracle Line”!

With help from 25 GREAT Indonesian particpants and one GREAT Swedish participant, the performances are  getting to come alive. Tomorrow it will be the last rehearsal before the International Performance Event – Undisclosed Territory # 10 – on 3-4 Dec at Studio Plesungan.
Tomorrow, DEC 1, Elin Lundgren and Petter Pettersson will give a lecture at Faculty of Art and Design, University of Sebelas Maret Surakarta and talk about their artistry.

Lundgren and Pettersson have worked in different forms of visual- and performing arts since 1999, they are the founders of the acclaimed Lilith Performance Studio in Malmo. With Island in the Sun they do their largest collaboration ever.In works that touches upon alienation, violence and failures they accumulate their pieces like living pictures. An absurd raw humor encounters a bare documentary narration. Lundgren and Pettersson’s intention is obviously political but without pointing out a certain direction. Their common interest lies in the warped and unfulfilled. Both throw light upon universal questions about loss and sorrow in their respective artistry.

”The Harmonica Boy and the Island” is a continuation of their performance ”Island in the Sun” shown in Malmo, Aug 2016. ”Miracle Line” is a new piece created after workshops at the Studio Plesungan.

Images from last week – Rehearsal at Studi Plesungan with a wonderful gang!!!
