\nProduction:<\/strong> SCCA-Ljubljana, 2023
\nDuration:<\/strong> 60\u2019
\nPremiere:<\/strong> SCCA Project Room (1 Februray 2023)<\/p>\n

Back2Back<\/b>\u00a0is a series of events where we invite local and international authors to present their production and establish a dialogue with works of their choice from the DIVA Station archive.<\/p>\n

Visual artist and performer\u00a0Tatiana Kocmur<\/b>\u00a0has prepared a selection of works in which she perceives the range of living longings and emotions. She connected them with her video performance\u00a0Sunflower<\/i>, created during the period of social restrictions during the covid-19 pandemic.

Sunflower<\/strong><\/p>\n

The video performance\u00a0Sunflower<\/i>\u00a0was created in the fall of 2020 before the epidemic was declared again in Slovenia. A performance without an audience, recorded on the seashore, silently announces another closure of society. The health crisis and the fear of death, which made it difficult and even prevented physical interaction and social life, intuitively triggered me to think about a limited body and alternative ways of communicating in a limited physical space. The peaceful environment, where I perform slow and sacred movements with 1.5 m long sticks made of wood found on the coast, relaxes and calms me. Circular movements give a feeling of cyclicity \u2013 endless grace and rest from the turbulent events of the crisis time.<\/p>\n

The period that lasts in bodies and groups evokes (contradictory) individual and collective longings for freedom (Marjan Gumilar,\u00a0Pogled<\/i>), autonomy (Maja Slavec,\u00a0Revaluation<\/i>), interaction (Nata\u0161a Sku\u0161ek,\u00a0You Will See\u2026<\/i>), solitude (Nata\u0161a Prosenc Stearns,\u00a0Untitled, 27 March 2020<\/i>), rehabilitation (Danilo Milovanovi\u0107,\u00a0Cover<\/i>), equilibrium (Ur\u0161ula Berlot,\u00a0Fluid strength<\/i>), infinity (Sa\u0161a Spa\u010dal,\u00a0Mycophone_unison<\/i>) and more.<\/p>\n

Tatiana Kocmur<\/b>\u00a0(1992) graduated in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana in 2015. In 2020, she completed her postgraduate studies in painting with a master\u2019s thesis,\u00a0Body installation \u2013 between performance and object<\/i>. Since 2013, she has been exhibiting and performing at various exhibition venues around Slovenia. She presented herself in Skopje, Milan, Bologna and Berlin. Her artistic practice moves between painting and live art. She also works as a producer of contemporary art (producer of Circulation 2, co-initiator of the platform for the production, exhibition and research of performative art TRANSLACIJA\/TRASLACI\u00d3N). Her practice is characterized by collaborations with artists from various fields. The works created during close cooperation reflect common interests and bear the specificity of the interweaving of artistic approaches that differ from each other \u2013 in terms of themes, method of execution and use of materials and media. The common denominator is an interest in live art and\/or creating events involving female artists\u2019 bodies. In 2021, she received a working scholarship from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
