FAR Festival of Art Research

MAY 12, 2012/ FAR Festival of Art Research/Ottersberg, Germany/Toronto, Canada
96°48’72”N 88°29’26”WE will be performed on May 12th, 2012 in Ottersberg, Germany at FAR Festival of Art Research and in Toronto ON, Canada by artists Tamara Platiša & Saša Rajšić.
96°48’72”N 88°29’26”WE represents the sum of the longitudes and latitudes of Ottersberg and Toronto. Platiša will be performing in Toronto and Rajšić will be located in Ottersberg. They will engage in a Skype conversation and project each other’s images on a blank wall. They will begin to paint each other’s portraits until an external factor prevents them from continuing. The images Platiša & Rajšić will create are personal and a reflection of their physical location, movements on the projection and the quality of their Internet connections. In an exchange of lines on a wall they will make the intangible, tangible.
Platiša and Rajšić work examines the relativity of proximity and distance in terms of their own communication in installation, performative and video format. The collaborative duo look to their shared tangible and intangible personal histories of Yugoslavia and the non-existence or disappearance of places, of residence and therefore of home, together re-examining the “everyday” as a space, where collapse and recovery occur simultaneously as well as in succession.

This will serve as the site of virtual performance, where the real and virtual meet. Over three days, Platiša & Rajšić will layer their real bodies with their projected body as well as their recorded bodies. They will constitute a new space through the interaction of two real spaces through virtuality.

LEITMOTIF guides the artists and communities of Parkdale through interactive works and site-specific engagements involving the following overarching thematic concepts:
Cubes, Cohesions, Manifestations, Associations, and Dioramas
Throughout the night, viewers can engage with live and unexpected project updates through Twitter.
