Akiko Sato, Hiša na hribu 2024
Objavljeno: 06. Avg 2024
Med povabljenimi gostujočimi umetnicami je Akiko Sato, ki prihaja z Japonske in bo na umetniški rezidenci v Žlebah z domačini izvajala ustvarjalno delavnico Sanje semen / Dreams of Seeds.
Umetnica Akiko Sato svoj projekt opiše takole:
"Ko je pred nekaj leti svet poplavila pandemija koronavirusa in je bilo drastično manj družbenih interakcij, namesto tega pa je prišlo veliko žalostnih novic, sem začela vsak dan hoditi po gozdu in moja pozornost se je preusmerila na nekaj, česar se prej nisem tako zelo zavedala.
Močno me je pritegnilo opazovanje naravnih pojavov in edinstvene situacije, ustvarjene z nenavadnimi pogoji tistega trenutka, kot da bi bila pred mojimi očmi orkestrirana gledališka scena.
Zdelo se mi je, kot da gledam kratek posnetek dolgega evolucijskega procesa, počasno gibanje velike preobrazbe, ki je v enem življenju ne moremo videti.
Seme je inkubirana oblika zapisanih zgodb in genskih kod, vsako ima svoje ustvarjalne načrte. Semena so romantična, sicer ne bi preživela na Zemlji.
Nekatera so genialno zasnovana, da letijo na daljavo, nekatera se skrivajo v sladkosti sadja, vključujejo nas v svoje skrivne, a očitne načrte kot sodelavce.
Razmišljala sem o tem, kako bi ta naravni ustvarjalni mehanizem vključila v svoj umetniški proces, saj kot umetnica hrepenim po tem, da bi ustvarila nekaj, kar bi bilo posejano z lepoto in dobrimi nameni ter bi se tako to bogastvo preneslo na prihodnje generacije.
"Narava je naša učiteljica," so rekli mnogi naši predniki in to je verjetno razlog, zakaj še vedno živimo na Zemlji tudi v tem času.
V preteklih nekaj letih smo kolektivno sočustvovali z izgubo drug drugega in jokali zaradi razdalje, ki nam je preprečila biti z našimi ljubljenimi.
Ta projekt je bil posvečen semenu naše prihodnosti, upanja, poklon moči narave, soncu, vodi in vetru ter njihovim čudovitim uresničenim oblikam.
Delavnica Dreams of Seeds / Sanje semen:
Cianotipija na blago; izdelovanje vrečke, kamor položite svoje sanje in semena
Semena so inkubacijska oblika zapisanih zgodb, gensko kodiranih z vso zgodovino svojega obstoja.
Vsako ima svoje ustvarjalne načrte, sicer ne bi preživelo pogojev na Zemlji.
Nekatera so zasnovana za letenje na dolge razdalje, druga pa se skrivajo v sladkosti sadežev.
Vključujejo nas v svoj skrivni, a očiten načrt kot sodelavce.
Ta delavnica je del raziskave, kako povezati ta naravni ustvarjalni mehanizem z umetniškim procesom, saj kot umetnica hrepenim po tem, da ustvarim nekaj, kar je zasajeno z lepoto in dobrimi nameni, in bo prav to bogastvo preneslo na prihodnje generacije.
Prinesite svoje sanje in se pridružite delavnici!"
Otvoritev razstave Hiša na hribu 2024, kjer bodo predstavljena dela z delavnice Sanje semen, ki jo bo umetnica Akiko Sato izvajala v skupnosti domačinov, bo v petek, 23. avgusta 2024 ob 19.30 pri Sveti Marjeti v Žlebah. Dobrodošli!
HIŠA NA HRIBU izvaja skupnostne aktivnosti v okviru mednarodnega projekta Human Cities Humana mesta / SMOTIES: Ustvarjalnost v majhnih in odmaknjenih krajih/ Creative works with small and remote places, ki ga v Sloveniji zastopa Urbanistični inštitut Republike Slovenije.

Artist on Dreams of Seeds project:
"When the Corona hit several years ago, and when there were drastically less of social interaction, and many sad news gushing instead, I started to walk through the woods everyday and my attention shifted towards something I was not that aware of before.
I was immensely drawn into observing the natural phenomenon, and its distinctive situation made by peculiar condition of the moment, as if theater scene was orchestrated in front of my eyes, I felt as if seeing a short recording of its long evolutionary process, the slow motional change of a vast transformation that we don't witness in our one life time.
Seeds are Incubated form of written stories and genetic codes, each has its own creative plans, seeds are romance, otherwise not have survived the earth condition.
Some are geniously designed to fly the distance, and some hid in the sweetness of fruits, they include us into their secret but obvious agendas as collaborators.
I've been thinking about how to sink this natural creative mechanism to my art process, because I as an artist long to give birth to something that is seeded with beauty, and well intended that will pass on such abundance to the future generations.
"Nature is our teacher", many of our ancestors have said, and this has probably been the reason why we still live on earth at this time too.
Past few years back, we collectively empathized each others loss, and shed tears experiencing the distance not being able to be with our loved ones.
This project was dedicated to the seed of our future hope, homage to the power of nature, the sun, and water and the wind, and its beautiful manifested shapes.
Dreams of Seeds workshop
Cyanotype on fabric, making a bag to put your dreams and seeds:
Seeds are incubated form of written stories genetically coded of its entire history of existance.
Each has its own creative plans, otherwise not have survived the earth condition.
Some are designed to fly the distance, some hid in the sweetness of fruits.
They include us into their secret but obvious agenda as a collaborator.
This workshop is part of an on going research on how to sink this natural creative mechanism to the Art process, because I as an artist long to give birth to something that is seeded with beauty well-intended, that will pass on such abundance to future generations.
Bring your dreams, and join the workshop!"
