Body, Space, Borders,

“body, space, borders” is an interdisciplinary artistic trilogy that brings together five artists from different disciplines to explore the notions of body and space, and their lines of intersection. 

3 words. 3 rooms. 3 narratives. 

[19:00. Enter Reaktor.]  

The Cinema opens its doors for the on-loop screening of the short film “Borderless”. Movement unfolds as both language and landscape, with the body assuming the role of the narrator. What begins as a gesture gradually evolves into a quiet meditation on the relationship between body, space, and the invisible architectures that inscribe themselves upon us. 

[19:30. Doors open into the Main Hall. Two performances.] 
Daniel Rudolf draws the first echo into space. 
In the sounds of his spatial music composition, the void becomes an extension of the self. We are transported into a liminal extension of the senses, stepping away, for a short while, from the contours of the present tense.

In a dance performance "Behind the Pain", Adi Hanan and Helen-Clare Kinney explore the fragility and power hidden behind pain through the lens of the female body. Interpreting it as an abstract space, a common ground, their battle invites us to ask ourselves: Is there really a border?

[20:30 – onwards. Music continues. There are drinks at the bar. Something on the bookshelf wants to be seen. There is something written on the wall that needs your impression.]
The Library houses a collaborative exhibition featuring Flonja Akshija and Anzhelika Palyvoda. Two distinctive approaches weave together sculpture, drawings, and the written word into an elastic fabric of reflection.

The exhibition will remain open on Sunday, 10 May. Join us in a Get-Together and Finissage at Reaktor from 10:00 to 16:00.
