RESEARCH VIDEOS
mythopoetic prose with light and Ave Maria by Origen
Kunstenwerkplaats, Brussels, June 2025
Carmera: Maria Ferreira Silva
Music: Ave Maria by Vladimir Vavilov (1970), falsely attributed to J. Caccini, in a version by Origen (2002).
Some Call Her The Star of The Sea
Kunstenwerkplaats, Brussel, juni 2025
Carmera: Maria Ferreira Silva
Muziek: Ave Maria van Vladimir Vavilov (1970), vals toegeschreven aan J. Caccini, in een versie van Origen (2002).
Some call her the Star of the Sea, others, Queen of Heaven, Mother Goddess, Mother of God, Goddess Mother, Mother of Mothers, Holy Maiden.
Simone de Beauvoir called her an idol, a servant, source of life, power of darkness, and the elementary silence of truth.
To me, she is also the seashore where waves of foam meet sand and rock. Silver moonlight. Your body, that of the ant, the whale, the starfish, the snake. The colors at dawn. The pitch-black night. The silence of your deepest sleep. The moment when it all began.
She is your sex and your orgasm. Your gut, your blood, your appetite.
Seated by the well, next to the great old tree where the fates weave our destiny, dressed in blue, she is spinning a thread, when rolling down from the sky like an alien, a winged creature appears. Their curls dance elegantly around their ageless face with tender features and dreamy eyes. Their body is meaty, full. One that you would like to squeeze. They have come with a stem of white lilies and accompanied by a ray of blinding light—in which some have, sometimes, seen a dove
flying down
straight
at her.

TEKST SAMPLE
(mythopoëtisch proza)
Some call her the Star of the Sea, others, Queen of Heaven, Mother Goddess, Mother of God, Goddess Mother, mother of mothers, Holy Maiden.
Simone de Beauvoir called her an idol, a servant, source of life, power of darkness, and the elementary silence of truth.
To me, she is also the seashore where waves of foam meet sand and rock. Silver moonlight. Your body, that of the ant, the whale, the starfish, the snake. The pitch-black night. The colors at dawn. The silence of your deepest sleep. The moment when it all began.
She is your sex and your orgasm. Your gut, your blood, your appetite.
Seated by the well, next to the great old tree where the fates weave our destiny, dressed in blue, silver, or white, she is spinning a thread or reading a book. Rolling down, as if from the sky like an alien, a winged creature appears. Their curls dance elegantly around their ageless face with tender features and dreamy eyes. Their body is meaty, full. One that you would like to squeeze. They have come with a stem of white lilies and accompanied by a ray of blinding light—in which some have, sometimes, seen a dove

"Space as Atmosphere: Floating in a Molecular Bath"
in Slow Spatial Reader: Chronicles of Radical Affection (Valiz, 2021).
Slow Spatial Reader offers a collection of essays about ‘Slow’ approaches to spatial practice and pedagogy from around the world. Its contributors are from twenty four countries on five continents. Each one brings distinct philosophical and disciplinary approaches— from ‘spatial’ fields like architecture, sculpture, and installation, but also performative, somatic and/or dramaturgical practices—, exploring how we think about and engage with space at a range of scales, tempos, and durations. Like its predeces sor, Slow Reader (Valiz 2016), this new publication is intended to spur meaningful dialogue between disciplines and cultures, inspiring not only a different velocity of engaging the world but also critical shifts in consciousness.
I contribute with a chapter called "Space as Atmosphere: Floating in a Molecular Bath", in which I share my recent research on atmosphere, slowness and perception, starting from a testimony of my experience with Stav Yeini's The Senders.
Aesthetic Boredom: Investigating the Experience of Slow Dance in a Society of Haste
Masterthesis, Contemporary Theatre Dance and Dramaturgy, Utrecht University, March 2020
Drawing on publications by Hartmut Rosa, Byung-Chul Han, Jonathan Crary, André Lepecki, Bojana Cvejic, Bojana Kunst, Ana Vujanović, Gernot Böhme, and Alva Noë, I explore how a rencent tendency in contemporary dance, coined ‘slow dance’ by Hana Lee Erdman and Louise Dahl, answers to a societal context of haste. I develop the concepts of ‘molecular thingness’ and ‘atmosphere’ to approach slowness beyond easily identifiable compositional choices; and ‘deep perception’, ‘aesthetic boredom’ and ‘atmospheres of resonance’ to indicate a distinctive way in which slow performances organize collective spaces of spectatorship, namely spaces that, by calling attention to a realm that ontologically precedes all kind of individuation, bypass individualistic as well as anthropocentric modes of engaging.
