The Distance Between You and Me

In The Distance Between You and Me, I inscribe and erase a series of fragments of texts from voicemail messages left for me by friends in other cities, on a wall covered with black paper using thick, white chalk. As the chalk slowly disintegrates into dust over the two-hour durational performance, the remaining written fragments become a visual metaphor for the ‘texts’ – movements and experiences – inscribed in our bodies. While I slowly move through a set of gestures, a video of a phantom arm mysteriously appears on my torso caressing me. A camera tracks my movements so that as I back away from the paper, wherever I travel, this virtual body appears as well – touching me, leaving some virtual trace.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.

This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
