<p style="text-align: justify;">Art it is a tool of changes, performance it is a language. Artist should be responsible for the community and for delivered message. As a performance artist I'm pointing the problems through the action. Exaggeration of the situations and changing the social rules - are my methods. My art is: ephemeral, responsible, provocative. My art practice revolves around: BODY - crisis of body, post humanism, body is obsolete, fragile body, biological and virtual body, political body. COMMUNITY - local, fragile, liminal. ACTIVISM - how art activity could influence social challenges, raise voice of the group, reframe the problems, and reinvent public space by art practice. In performances the series of actions intervened into my body, they change body identity, they anonymise it and shape it, challenge it. The sharp ritual of shifts from defacement to suggests a mode of improvisation and with simplicity of the complicity makes visible antibodies as an embodied metaphor.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">My practice explores the fragile tensions between struggle and absurdity that are born from a deconstruction of the self. Investigating identity as an unstable and constantly evolving signifier, I negotiate how ritual, intimacy, and memory inform how the body occupies space and time. Employing the audience or camera as a tool to generate a sense of invited voyeurism, my works welcome a co-existence of vulnerability between viewer and artist to create an activated connection and dynamic means to examine perceptions of gender, femininity, and the monstrous.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I am an artist, writer, activist and academic. My writing, research and performance practice centre around intersectionality and narratives of otherness, isolation and the end of the world. I attempt to expose established ways of looking and modes of representation – particularly the civilised/savage duality – and flip them to see how they survive on their metaphorical backs. I've performed underground (Shunt Vaults, These Brutal Queens), in bawdy spaces (Purex (Lisbon), Duckie, Cruising for Art), white cubes (Nuit Blanche Brussels, Hayward Gallery), art festivals (Spill, ANTI) and once in a bungalow in the process of falling off a cliff (The House, Scarborough.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I question myself about shifts, burlesque, absurdity. Rituals,Transformation, fragility, instability interest me a lot. I like to play with environment, place and relate a poetic point of view with my actions. Presence is at the center of my work. Territory, directions,resonance are some points of reflexions. Also, I experiment sound in my work like a material, an experience that can be felt with our entire body.</p>

How to speak / To those who cannot hear / The beating sound
Of a warm soul</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">WHY.
I have tried to express myself through different means, convinced that one had to be preferred to the others, struggling because of my incapability to choose, eventually coming to the conclusion that THERE’S JUST ONE QUESTION, YET THE ANSWERS ARE MANY. I feel I have something to say, but the question is rooted so deep inside that I just feel there is something down there, asking to come out, willing to, so badly, pushing from within.
I communicate through WORDS. Words that mean and sound. GENETICS, COMMUNICATION, INTERACTION and IDENTITY. Big things from tiny ones. Small things from huge ones.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">A means of expression. A natural progression. An unspoken dialogue that converses with the soul. Engaging with all aspects of being; mental, physical and spiritual. Responding to spaces which captivate compulsive visions. Considering how the body relates to this in a dynamic rather than static fashion. Pushing boundaries to identify and overcome limitations. Authenticity and honesty are requisite. A ritualistic approach achieving a deeper meditative state, allowing transformation to occur –a liberating rebirth.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I am an artist, writer, and thinker concerned with the communication and development of art with the non-art expert in mind. I believe that works, no matter how difficult, can be explored in a variety of ways from highly theoretical and technical to familiar and contextual. In taking a more “every day” approach, works, once alienating and confusing to a non-expert, can be accessed by a broader and more diverse audience.</p>

Joy Harris, USA

Currently living and working in London, cwl is an artist and sensory researcher playing with the material world. Following process in order to share the fantasy narratives that drift through form, work incorporates sculpture, sound, image, and text, to develop into temporary installations of participatory performance scenarios. Her sensory research, such as the unfolding, cutting, re-folding, and melting of a roof into 23 ingots, or burning designer goods in the volcanic desert, is often un-witnessed and only the relics remain to infuse and inform further actions.

<p style="text-align: justify;">Connecting with the body, doing something with the body is arduous and unconscious. All you need is your body; it is with you wherever you go. Open to all deformations and steering of the thoughts towards good or bad. When I’m expressing my thoughts, extracting them with my body; first and foremost the things I do when I’m directly communicating with my body, my wrinkled up body which has stayed in the water for hours, my silence before sleep‐death, my rituals, my repetitions, the nature in which I heal and become dull… By forming relationships between body and image – location – objects, I do mainly performance based works on becoming mechanical, openness, shelter, values and rituals, which I constrain by the public space or the venue I’m in.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I draw on ideas and subjects related to the unconscious mind and its encapsulation in the human body. My aim is to trigger a seemingly unconnected chain of associations in a person's interchangeable perception and offer them a distinctive synthesis in the artwork itself. Each work is a transformative encounter, binding the materialized work with the content. In the artworks I provoke the lines drawn between the constructed social perspectives and the prevalent standpoints of individuals by reflecting the blind spots of both.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">My art practice is a juxtaposition of contemporary crime scenes. Art for me is a collection of methods and techniques that enable shaping and re-writing history. Mostly I do collective stuff, but then there is this periods of “painting”. The process has cleared now. I think I walk alone for a while until someone introduce me to a personality I can`t resist. This is usually a dead artist. We hang out true books ,videos and stuff from internet. The relationship get`s really intense and at some moment my old master disappears at some late night discotecka. I try to recreate what we were discussing. It becomes an infected conflict. I form an archive of gaps and misunderstandings. There is a small machine inside my mind, which generates what I believe is poetry, tho I know it`s already half a lie. </p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">My artistic practice is dedicated to the performativity and materiality of the drawing discipline. It focuses on drawing as the trace of an action made by the body in motion. The idea of control is explored through physical and psychological limitations, and working to the state of exhaustion. By investigating the liminal space between input and output it looks to the movement through time, body, and space. The work becomes a cathartic experience. For me, it is the movement between the passive and the active.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Art has the privilege of a certain freedom towards political issues; so-called “non-political” art can be abused the easiest and is therefore sometimes much more dangerous to human comfort than so-called “political“ art. All art is political. The only problem lies with our confusion of politics with power. We all perform our roles within our lives, the role of the performance artist is to investigate, reflect and react to them. Performance art is a „spontaneous ritual.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">My practice is strongly influenced by theater background and main source of inspirations are limits and borders of my mind and body understood as a material. I like to put a body in a competition with other materials or underline one of his aspects, like liquidity or capacity for absorbing and mixing with other materials.
I try to create a space for imagination more then searching for an answer.
I work with performance, photo and video.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">While moving my body in space and time I create shapes and lines. Movement to me is first and foremost a sensation , auditory, visual or corporeal, i.e. passage between me and the other. Using my body as a medium to create art, I try to make that passage or moment of in- between visible and shift the attention to the possibilities it offers for alternative modes of being and alternative forms of community.

<p style="text-align: justify;">Paz's art practice is about the political power of a body in transition, it’s an inquiry into the scars of displacement. This practice is intrinsically autobiographical formulating a highly diverse and very organic methodology; ranging in media from drawing, to object making, and video to performance. These are used to transpose her memories of a past, temporal state onto the present and allow a window of personal, emotional experience to the audience.</p>

His works investigate and question the quest for socio-cultural supremacy, political injustice, social hypocrisy, gender and sexual prejudice, xenophobic violence and objectification of humans. He considers his body as a thought provoking tool and material that will generate many possible dialogues of cultural identities and subversions. crazinisT also explores the spontaneous reactions and indecisive involvement of his audience as co-performers, breaking the boundaries between art, artist and audience. <a href="http://www.crazinistartist.com" target="_blank">Homepage</a></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I consider myself as a visual artist, experienced in theatre, dance, video art, installation and performance art. That means my understanding and awareness of communication, exchanging and sharing is image and action based. I don’t trust verbal language we are used to control and manipulate, but I like to use the complex construction of language to transform these aspects to artistical expressions. Therefore I’m looking for a direct encounter which is open enough to touch a certain subject first on an emotional and then on an abstract or intellectual level. In this sense, performance art is for me the most interesting and challenging art form; because it’s most direct one.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">My practice, broadly speaking, is process-driven and research focused spanning across video, performance and installation. I am interested in probing the boundaries between successful and failed communications and idiosyncrasies between form and content. I use familiar forms and structures and then excavate and fill them with different content, to show something not sitting comfortably in its form. Jacques Derrida’s essay ‘Parergon' serves as a platform for me to establish a broad research-based pursuit, as the foundation for my work.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Radage's work moves away from body as item. It often incorporates the blending and collision of raw materials and natural environment. Looking at the image as a starting point, the body, the skin and its everyday readings are stretched across to unchartered territory and reinscribed upon their framing. The work moulds around themes of body image and post gender politics. The (female) form fluxes between bleeding into the background and framing, consuming and appropriating the materials that share the image.</p>

Use various mediums but increasingly concerned with actions with others and by myself. In this concerned with individual and collective ‘presence’. My last action was ‘Conversation as Artwork’. Am drawn to ideas of ‘non performance’. Have art connections with Germany, ex Beuys students and contemporary African artists. Don’t view myself as a performance artist but involved in creative act of being human. Have collaborated with Jelili Atiku and did workshop with Bruce Lacey years ago.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I recognise the necessity of reflecting every day life and asking very simple questions, which, in my opinion, can point out some main misunderstandings in the structure of our society and mindset of individual human beings. I admire the way children perceive their surroundings and ask questions rather than trust their intellectual knowledge. Through the naive look of vulnerability, I believe, the true knowledge and strength can be obtained.
The aim of my practise is to live consciously, while using the power of action, reaction and change. Therefore I seek for the dialogue.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In my work I investigate a composite psyche of the collective ‘landscapes’ that are created by separate psychological parts of individuals through repeated histories, individual memories and expressions. Working with the body as an archive I attempt correlationist experiments with alternative forms of knowledge that go beyond thought to understand the co-relation between body and reality. Currently I am working towards a project planned to commemorate 100 years since the Russian revolution in 2017.</p>
