Published on August 24th, 2020Sailor_log: 3rd ocean /slo: Mornarjev_dnevnik: 3. ocean/
Sailor* pluje po negotovih vodah studijskega dela. Enemu mornarju se zdijo pomembni instrumenti, s katerimi oblikuje domišljijske pokrajine, ki sprožijo temeljna čustva in gibe – okostju doda telo. Drugi mornar se bolj ukvarja z odkrivanjem telesa prostora, z rezanjem glav in rok – da razgradi obstoječe stanje. Toda v obeh primerih podoba izgublja telo in se približuje smrti. Znajdeta se v radijski postaji v vsemirju, ki nikoli ne predvaja mornarjeve najljubše pesmi. Tu morata najti nov način, tretjo pot, da medsebojno komunicirata na način, ki presega jezik / zunaj polja moči.
Ahoj! Tretji ocean se ponuja. Folklora, Glitch, Pop in reverzni inženiring Praznine.
*: Caroline Beach and Ernst Markus Stein sta skupaj plula in raziskovala v rezidenci, ki sta jo omogočila En-Knap in Hellerau Europäische Zentrum der Künste Dresden. Poleg tega so nanju vplivali ljudje, ki so jih srečala v Ljubljani, zgodovina države, arhitektura, ki ju je pozdravljala na poti do studia – in način, kako se “hvala” rima s Koala. Prvič sta skupaj ustvarila umetniško delo: Caroline prihaja iz polj koreografije in performensa, Markus pa iz sfere DJ-janja, Net Art-a in slikarstva. Njune raziskave so se osredotočile na točke prekrivanj in razmikov na njunih področjih – gradnjo mostov s pomočjo starih medijev in zapiske v novih jezikih – ki so boljši način kot delanje kompromisov.

Sailor_log: 3rd ocean
Sailor* is sailing through the precarious waters of studio work. One Sailor finds instruments important in order to build imaginary landscapes that perform basic emotions and movements, adding body to a skeleton. The other Sailor is more concerned with discovering the body of space itself, cutting off various heads and hands in order to dissolve the state. But in both cases, the image loses its body and approaches death. They find themselves in a radio station in outer space that never plays Sailor’s favorite song. Here they must find a new way, a third way, to communicate with each other in the place beyond language, beyond power.
Ahoi! The third ocean offers itself. Folklore, Glitch, Pop, and the Reverse Engineered Void.
*: Caroline Beach and Ernst Markus Stein have been sailing and researching together in a residency coordinated and made possible by En-Knap and Hellerau Europäische Zentrum der Künste Dresden. Besides that, they have been influenced by the people they have met in Ljubljana, the history of the country, the architecture that they say hello to on their walk to the studio, and the way that ‘thank you’ rhymes with Koala in Slovenian. It is their first time creating a new work together: Caroline comes from choreography and performance and Markus from DJ’ing, Net Art, and painting. Their research has focused on finding the overlaps and distances in their respective fields, building bridges through old mediums and writing new languages that are better than compromises.
