French Fries

SOUND NOMADS Art Performance #13

A metaphorical and fragmentary examination of the relationship 'artist and curator'. On the one hand the feeding of the curator through the artist with demanded works providing the best fair market value. On the other hand the lactation/infiltration of the artist through the curator with black, tainted milk of the art market. A frozen lake, two freezing figures, a curator, who is cooking french fries in his kitchen while singing and giggling. A comparison with the meal, which appeals to the masses, the curator himself detests and even so deals with it just because of the success

The performance produced for the 'T.A.O.M.A.C. vol.2' exhibition not only involves the curator in respect of content but also as means and as a performance actor/guest nomad. The art of manipulating a curator. The working method of SOUND NOMADS with spontaneous, site-specific forms of expression was maintained.

Technology: Sounds get triggered by multiple light sensors attached to the baby bottle and the lips. In addition, the sum of all sensor states influences the continuous soundscape of the playground.
