インアー・シャルフ (Inger Scharff) & メリ・コチ (Merih Koç)
Visual artists Inger Scharff and Merih Koç are contributing to the venue with the space-specific piece “Gate”. The duo is concerned with human’s penchant for self-editing and fear of banalities and clichés. However, what seems banal often appears more complex and nuanced when we take a closer look.
The “GATE” consists of two fraternal sculptures that reflect each other. They have been formed so that they fit together. Their shapes depend on each other.They part from each other but they also belong together. Like culture to culture, people to people and artist/performer to audience/observer.
Through attention and honesty in the process the artists wanted to explore how they realized their ideas. The piece has been created with a point of no return attitude that resembles musicians playing a concert. Like musicians and audience always prepare, the artist have prepared in terms of materials,
dimensions, idioms and position in the room. After the preparations the piece was created in one improvisational take. The sculptures’ fragmented idiom is inspired by the structure of classical busts and sporadically applied gold leafs, not to cover but to frame and emphasize the process. Placed on each side of the stage, they are creating an illusion of a gate to the experience (the picture above shows the models).
Andreas Schulenburg
Andreas Schulenburg (1975) was born in Germany and was later educated at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. Schulenburg works with several different genres and media – amongst other ceramics, drawing, felt and sculpture. Yet, his favoured media remains felt, which is used for both small objects, large sculptures and two dimensional pictures.

Artist Information:
Maskinel Terapi
Maskinel Terapi is a sound art duo consisting of the two composers Sandra Boss and Jonas Olesen. The duo explores the borders between performance and installation, using found objects as sound emitters. Answering machines, electric muscle stimulators and sleeping machines are some of the ingredients often used in the performances of Maskinel Terapi. Here obsolete apparatuses known from science, therapy or the simple everyday life come to live again. Through new musical narratives, Maskinel Terapi explores the apparatuses' therapeutic, hypnotic and telepatic potential.
Member:
Sandra Boss (midi-org, elec)
Jonas Olesen (church-org, pump-org, el-org, elec)
The Living Room feat. Koichi Makigami
Consisting of three of the most promising and explorative musicians from the contemporary Nordic music scene, The Living Room converges various sounds and styles of play into a sonically vibrant field. In April 2014 The Living Room performed six concerts in Japan, and even more in Europe, with Koichi Makigami. The Japan tour also included performances with the rock band Hikashu and acclaimed koto player Michiyo Yagi. The four musicians are looking forward to reunify in Tokyo in the realm of free improvising, electronica and open conceptual compositions.
