Open Space: Pensive Vivifier – Closing Event

Wed 12 June
18.00–22.00
22,50 / 17,50

Presented by The Grey Space

It’s a wrap. We close Pensive Vivifier’s Open Space residency with an intimate performative dinner.

The past three months Pensive Vivifier took the internet out of its virtual context and placed it right in front of our nose. Their anti-disciplinary performance KOSMOSE shape-shifted from performance to installation to danceable concert. Using personal stories, the universe is mirrored as experienced by the members of Pensive Vivifier and many others from generations Y and Z.

During this final event, a table conversation will be interrupted by food, a filmscreening and a lecture. Participants meet during an artistic dinner provided by artist Mattia Papp. Psychologist Ángela Cáceres will make us think about ways to create space for other realities and existences. And a conversation with the artists and participants will be led by curator Ewa Scheifes. Expect to be taken beyond our identities and to explore alternative ways of transcending culture.

Pensive Vivifier

Pensive Vivifier is an art collective consisting of Janne Kosmos, Tes Wolters Bos and Silva Westera. Their practice is always expanding and incorporating new elements and disciplines to reflect on identity, transformation and the fragmented and saturated world on our screens. Fluid movement, intuition and curiosity guide them to combine installations, videos, music compositions and perfor­mances. They apply a musical approach to structure and practice association as a methodology. Their sources are footage and material hijacked from TikTok, YouTube, PrnHb and books, and everyday life.
