- About Me (human):
- For the past six years I have been collaborating with Holly Faurot on endurance-oriented performances based on what we refer to as the Surveillance System, a physical network of bodies controlling bodies through movement, video, improvisation, and sound. These works exist somewhere between the realms of performance art and dance. They focus on movement as a language of basic human interaction, whether it is through a subtle gesture, a theatrical spectacle, or the placement of a body within a space.
Pre-recorded and live surveillance videos act as signals that trigger the performers’ options within the non-linear dramas. Choreographed and improvisational elements based on spontaneous decisions force us (and/or other performers) to learn how we fit within the system and how we can or cannot manipulate one another. Dynamic systems of communication emerge within these multi-sensory works.
Our performances relate to voyeurism, shifts in power-positions, and translation through different media. The temporality of installation art, contemporary dance, conceptual art, and video trends are all influences that inform our collaborative work.
We seek to bring humanness and the body to the public in its most shimmering form, whether it is through a triumphant sensory experience or a grotesque, yet celebrated, representation of reality.

The Art of Fashion: Installing Allusions (Part 1)
The exhibition at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam investigates the borders between fashion and art.

Die deutsche Installationskünstlerin schlägt neuerdings einen heiteren, milderen Ton an, was nicht unbedingt ihr Stärke ist. Eine Ausstellung in den Hamburger Deichtorhallen. - Photography exhibition at the British Library | Culture | The Guardian
The early Victorians were the first generation to see themselves through the camera lens, but the idea of photography, the possibility of making an exact reproduction of visual experience, was one – like flight and the philosophers' stone – that had haunted the imagination of inventors for centuries. - Submission | Pictoplasma | Berlin
an open CALL FOR ENTRIES for the Festival's big screen animation programs. - In pictures: Earth - Art of a changing world | Environment | guardian.co.uk
Pictures from Earth: Art of a Changing World is a new exhibition at the Royal Academy, London, bringing together over 30 leading international contemporary artists to examine the impact of global climate change on humanity through visual art, installation and sculpture. The exhibition opens on 3 December 2009 and runs until 31 January 2010 - Orchestrations | Flanders Today
Raes has been dedicated to the promotion and performance of experimental music and sound art for more than 40 years. He and partner, Moniek Darge, were named “cultural ambassadors” to Flanders in 1997 for their pioneering performances and extensive travels as the Logos Duo. - ArtSlant - November 14th - December 22nd, Galerie Polaris, Matthias Bruggmann
Matthias Bruggmann est photographe reporter, et même plus précisément « photographe de guerre », les territoires qu’il photographie sont la Somalie, l’Afghanistan, l’Irak, Haïti. Ces populations qu’approche de très près l’artiste, et qui le considèrent souvent avec méfiance, se trouvent prises dans d’importants bouleversements sociaux politiques. - ArtSlant - November 6th - December 23rd, Galerie Taiss, klavdij sluban
Klavdij Sluban se déplace à pied à travers les villes d'un Far Est abandonné, où sont passés les habitants ? Il en reste quelques-uns, emmitonnés dans le brouillard, quelques bêtes en fuite ou le dos au mur. À la recherche d'êtres humains, le photographe insiste au-delà de l'Europe, il pénètre en Asie, Russie, Mongolie, Chine, avec le transsibérien, mais il ne rencontre aucune densité humaine. Partout, la géographie prédomine et rend l'espèce humaine négligeable. - ArtSlant - November 5th - January 3rd, 2010, Galerie Blue Square, Doris Kloster-Folliet, John Lucas, Vladimir Sichov, Alexei Titarenko, Alexei Vassiliev
Pour commencer sa troisième année d!existence, la galerie blue square est heureuse de présenter une exposition collective de cinq photographes qui ont chacun travaillé sur des représentations nostalgiques de l!ex Union Soviétique. La première exposition de la galerie rassemblant des artistes de l!Ouest comme de l!Est participe également auxc ommémorations du 20ème anniversaire de la chute du Mur de Berlin en présentant une série exceptionnelle de photographies de Keith Haring peignant sur le Mur et prise par le photographe russe Vladimir Sichov en 1986.

It is great to meet you. I really like the images on your page—intriguing work. I have been working with issues of conflict and consequences—specifically in relation to power dynamics and environment. Your Surveillance System sparked my interest. I come to the city periodically; let me know when you have some performances coming up, would love to see your work. I'll be in NYC for a week at the beginning of June.
best,
Tiffany
thank you. hope to meet in İstanbul then.
- false promises rooted in dreams that get swept away with the changing tides - nothing permanent or lasting ever happens today because nothing is valued beyond its ability to be some new idea or new creative tool for us all to use and all are busy creating tools for all to use.
the quantity of these that are produced today and overlooked are evidence of that. we are in a sea of invention and so invention is no longer thrilling to anyone - especially because of bleeding edge, everything that is invented can be made closely enough related to everything else that the thing that is invented isn't even new. its muddy waters where all the "individual" is homogeneous.
so it's me dancing with me, like most people are dong nowadays anyway - isolation through constant connection
you seem like an interesting cat, i mean human. have we met before? i got an invite from you to be your dance net friend. i am happy to oblige. your work looks very interesting.
best,
tiffany
