Collaboration #06

Durational performance: “Collaboration #06” by William „Bilwa“ Costa & Jasmin Schaitl”

“collaboration is an ongoing series of performances by Jasmin Schaitl (AT) and William “Bilwa” Costa (US) that explores the correlation between, and the potentials of; transformation, alteration, duration and ephemerality. It combines two practices that incorporate movement, sound, action, materials, objects, the body, and composition.

collaboration #06 focuses on the complex, complementary, parallel, and reciprocal relationship between two artists, and the constant action of facing each other, during a durational performance. Each artist supports the other, sometimes as an anchor, other times as a source of momentum, like a pendulum or metronome. The two artists are connected with long thin wires to an anchor on the wall. Each movement made by either artist is having a direct impact on the tension of the wire and therefore on both bodies. Movement and stillness, are only possible in mutual consent.”

William „Bilwa“ Costa (US) and Jasmin Schaitl (AUT) presented their duo-performances in Vienna, Berlin, and Tallinn.

Durational Performance: Wednesday 30th of October from 18:00 until 21:00.
