Marija Mojca Pungerčar: The Socialdress Service in Brussels and the Jakopič Recognition

bruseljTHE SOCIALDRESS SERVICE PROJECT IN BRUSSELS

On April, 27th, my project Socialdress Service appeared at the Trouble festival in Brussels. In the Maison des Femmes I led three sewing worhskops that helped the participants to mend old used clothes, or clothes they’d like to transform.
The team of six local textile design students helped to approx. 40 participants from various social backgrounds. The daylong sewing marathon completed at the end of the day with the exhibition at the Maison des Arts.

The appearance of the Socialdress Service in Brussels was a part of the international collaborative project Crisis, What Crisis?, kurated by Antoine Pickels. The slovenian selector was Mara Vujić, the art director of the City of Women Festival. The Trouble Festival was organised by Les Halles de Schaerbeek.

Trivia Records Zapisi

  • Lately i am acquiring some finger dexterity again. The victims are some relatively newly developed instruments (turboguitars, turboflutes and cirkulinos). Here is a selection of cutouts from various live situations - mostly as parts of Cirkulacija 2 program - from 2020 onwards.
  • Celjska interdisciplinarna impro zasedba s projektnim imenom Umoblodnica v sestavi: Iva Tratnik, Andreja Džakušič, Keiko Miyazaki, Estela Žutić, Simon Macuh, Dalibor Bori Zupančič, Borut Peternelj – Amper-o-mat. Posnetek nastopa 20. maja 2021 Cirkulaciji 2 | podhod Ajdovščina.
  • Generative algorithmic composition excerpts based on realtime video data for Francisco Tomsich "ELEGIJA | ELEGY" video installation presented from 10th to 21st July 2020 at Cirkulacija 2 Ljubljana Slovenia. Elegija (Elegy) is a mournful song performed by ensemble of video installations, sculptures and sound installation – made specifically for Cirkulacija 2’s premises. The installation setup was totally site-specific – for the new space of Cirkulacija 2 in Ajdovščina subway.
  • Field recordings in air and water during the Cirkulacija 2 visit in Finland. The place of rest and contemplation was at Future Lake near Helsinki and the performance place was on Merikerho club/ ship in Helsinki harbor. Boštjan Leskovšek was using the underwater recordings as his instrument. Here it is as separate album.
  • A recording of Cirkulacija 2 (Stefan Doepner, Boštjan Leskovšek, Borut Savski) performance at Merikerho club Helsinki Finland on 20th October 2018. Visit was part of two-way exchange between Ljubljana and Helsinki (Cirkulacija 2 and Koelse = Association of experimental electronics – Kokeellisen Elektroniikan Seura)
  • V gosteh v C2 je bil John Duncan, eden temeljnih sodobnih radikalnih umetnikov zadnjih štirideset let. Z Duncanom smo v veliki dvorani Cirkulacije 2 v treh dneh pripravili kvadrofonsko situacijo v kateri smo se zvrstili vsi sodelujoči. Domači sodelujoči: Iva Tratnik, Stefan Doepner, Boštjan Leskovšek in Borut Savski.
  • Double-bill/ triple action. On the occasion of Mike Hentz' Mental Landscapes lecture at Cirkulacija 2 - a concert occurred: Javier Areal Vélez – Argentinian composer and guitar improviser claiming to be open to any kind of participation visited C2. He was joined by the two local strummers: Leskovšek and Savski.
  • Moške sodobne različice vokaliziranja so izven gostilne ali cerkve (formatiranih oblik pevskih zborov) redke. Na pobudo Košnika, ob neposrednem nedavnem vzoru Tomažinke, je nastala ideja za uporabo glasu kot izhodišče in elektroakustične prijeme kot berglo za tri zvočne raziskave.
  • Ob otvoritvi sezone Cirkulacija 2 | leto 2017/ letnik X - prigodni kulturno-umetniški program – impro session, dva ali trije. Mali synthi velikega Boštjana in otožni zvoki mandolin – Savski + Cirkulino ter Kristl.
  • Bogdana Herman in Borut Savski sva leta 2010 zasnovala projekt Novokomponiranih slovenskih ljudskih, kar je rodilo sedem javnih koncertov in zbirni cd album. V letu 2016 se je začel novi krog slovenskih novoljudskih. Delni rezultati so že dostopni ...
