Lov/The Hunt
"Lov ", performans 2017. Autor: Ivana Ranisavljević Trajanje: 1h Co-Creation Live Factory Prologue I, Venice International Performance Art Week, Venecija, Italija Koncept ovog rada je višeslojan ali se u samoj osnovi bavi problematikom tri pitanja: karaktera/karakternosti, zapisivanja radi zaboravljanja i vidljivosti, odnosno „čitanja“ namere aktera. Koji se značaj daje karakternosti u savremenom dobu i kakvu promenu u drštvu donosi gubitak/mutacija te vrednosti? Zapisivanje svega što nas duboko pomera, menja, inspiriše- da li daje još veću snagu tim rečima ili se pamćenje time pohranjuje? Treće pitanje izraženo je u vizuelnoj estetici, minimalistički i poetično. Umetnica leži nepomično na stomaku u mraku. Svojom desnom rukom, repetativno piše (tušem i perom) reči: „habit-action-hunt“ po belim listovima papira, do momenta kada automatski počinje da ispisuje svoj trenutni emocionalno-psihološki doživljaj. Svetlost lampe u blizini glave, osvetljava ruku (glavnog aktera) i papir. Glava je okrenuta u suprotnom pravcu od ruke kojom piše - odsustvo vida/kontrole u pisanju, namerno oduzetog elementa, gde se povlači paralela sa oduzimanjem elementa radnji/akciji, odnosno navici i time narušavanja konstrukta i postojanja istih. "The Hunt" 2017 Author: Ivana Ranisavljević Duration: 1h Co-Creation Live Factory Prologue I, Venice International Performance Art Week, Venice, Italy There are several layers in the concept of this work but three basic subjects: character/nobility, writing to be forgotten and visibility viz reading intent of the performer. What is the value of character in the modern age and what kind of change in the society could brings its lost/mutation? Writing all what moves us deeply, transform us and inspire us- does it get more powerful by writing or it buries the memory of it? Third subject lay in visual aesthetic, minimal and poetic. Artist is laying motionless on her stomach in the dark. With her right hand she’s writing in repetition (with feather and ink) words: „habit-action-hunt“, on white papers until she starts to write automatically her emotional-psychological experience. Light from the lamp near by falls on her hand (main performer) and paper. Her head is turned in opposite way of the hand- absence of sight/control in writing, intentionally removed element, where parallel is withdrawn with removing the element from the action/habit and therefor its construct and subsistence are broken.
