»Ein Mund voll Wald« (A Mouthful of Forest) - Scholarship holders of the Radio Art Residency Weimar exhibit their work
The current holders of the Radio Art Residency, the artist duo from Buenos Aires (Argentina), Florencia Curci and Agustin Genoud, will present the results of their residency in Weimar on Sunday, 5 June 2022, 7 pm. »Ein Mund voll Wald« proposes a drift into a vocal territory. This territory is mapped through technical, political and performative exchanges.
The exhibition presents a series of works by Curci-Genoud. Through video-performances, graphics and radio devices the audience is asked to explore vocal ecosystems. The mouth is conceived as an inhabited territory. Corporal cavities appear as a place that is traversed by intensities and beings. In this place, animal-machine learning become a landscape-shaping and terraforming force.
»Ein Mund voll Wald« contains several approaches to the origins of vocal universes. A change of scale to consider physical voids as spaces infused with intensities, beings and matter.
