"Antarctic Dream – Ice as Architecture of the Human Spirit"

by Andrea Pagnes & Verena Stenke

 

Out there, we were constantly living in a state of paradox. To question our Self continuously to understand which art actions we should have made to render our purpose at its best begun to become almost nonsense: anything, and with it, our existences were just... [continue reading]

STUDIO RESEARCH #3

 

"Two Bodies in Space. Durational Performance: The Quest for Authenticity in the VestAndPage Experience"
By Andrea Pages

 

Practice teaches us to distinguish between being awake and sailing into oblivion. Acting with the total resolution is to enter into the sphere of the inner silence, while awareness changes the intuitive sense of time created by the surface of the mind. This means to wake up, honour, and make our presence sacred because this is of primary importance. We don't need anything else to enter into the abode of darkness to achieve and increase our essence. We only need to practice relentlessly, inflexibly, and inexorably. [continue reading, pp. 4-16]

sin∞fin – Performances at the End of the World

 

By Andrea Pagnes & Verena Stenke

VestAndPage press, 2010

DVD & film textbook

Standing (up), sitting (on a chair), lying (on the bed), sometimes even waiting for what is going to happen; and yet to be perfectly aware that what is going to happen has somehow already happened. A body enclosed in a circle seems to be always waiting for something, inside of which it may happen, or always makes an effort to become 'something'.

sin∞fin – Performances at the Holy Centre

By Andrea Pagnes & Verena Stenke

VestAndPage press, 2011

DVD & film textbook

Yet, still flaws in the system. Modernity's great promise, the freedom from fear, now lies in ruins. Fear as medium, not as a message. Fear as a collateral effect, the force behind progress. Fear as a refuge, home, style, character, tradition. Fear to take a chance, scoring the aces that plays and wins, caressing, embarrassing. Fear manages. Fear rocks. My fear begins where someone else's fear ends.
