Installation as a result of 2 hour performance during the opening of Mealstrom exhibition in Arti et Amicitiae Amsterdam
The two-hour performance at the opening leaves traces; traces of paper, traces of movement, traces of energy, traces of life being in decay. The performance is a reflection of the origin of the dead material: paper and charcoal. Through the crease and further processing of the material the veins and the sap as a source of life are made visible. Trough the repetitive destruction the decay of material and exhaustion you can sense decay. A dualistic proces between life and death surrended to coincidence.
Maelstrom
The artists Jolanda Jansen and Anna j. van Stuijvenberg create with their installations a ‘Landscape of Paper ‘, in the exhibition Maelstrom at Arti et Amicitiae from Friday May 31st to Sunday June 23rd 2019. They both make monumental work but out off different disciplines; installation and performance art and they use paper as their basic material.
The artists are honoured with their guests photographer Jeroen Toirkens, journalist Jelle Brandt Corstius and performance artist Marilyn Arsem, who complement and enrich the exhibition with their work. In addition, there is a side program with lectures and guided tours.
