Description
Orientierung erlaubt uns eine Vorstellung von dem, was uns umgibt. Das künstlerische Forschungsprojekt "On Orientation" untersucht Orientierung als eine Tätigkeit, eine Erfahrung, die weder fix noch gegeben ist: ein aktives Gestalten (Gardening) unseres In-der-Welt-Seins. Unter der Annahme einer nicht-anthropozentrischen Perspektive hat das Forschungsteam verschiedene Gestaltungssysteme untersucht und acht Skulpturen als Werkzeuge entwickelt und angewendet - im öffentlichen Raum von Tokyo, London und Wien über einen Zeitraum von über zwei Jahren. Sie traten in Dialog mit Kolleg_innen und Künstler_innen, um die Idee von Identität und unser Verhältnis von Subjekt und Objekt im Feld von (Für)Sorge und Beziehung, Autonomie und Abhängigkeit zu hinterfragen.
Orientation provides us with a notion of the world around us. The arts-based research "On Orientation" investigates orientation as an activity, an experience, that is neither fixed nor given: an active composing (gardening) of our being-in-the-world. Assuming a non-anthropocentric view of the world, the research team has been exploring different systems of composition, set-up eight fitted sculptures as tools, spanning the course of more than two years in the public spaces of Tokyo, London and Vienna. They entered a dialogue with colleagues and artists to question the idea of identity as well as the relationship of subject and object in the field of care and relationship, autonomy and dependence.
