๐Ÿ’พ During Sundayโ€™s afternoon program, December 10, an artist duo of Marika Smrekovรก and Elia Moretti will present Symposium Musicum through the listening session carefully guided by their insights.

Described by Matthew Blackwell as ยซa fascinating document of intercultural exchange and mutual understanding through the medium of recorded audioยป, Symposium Musicum approaches listening as a performative strategy. The project was developed within the dramaturgical framework of the 8th edition of the Community Festival of Contemporary Art UM UM (in 2019). The sound was used in it as the ontological tool to explore relations between Slovaks and Roma in areas of eastern and north-eastern Slovakia with significant Roma enclaves.

Concept by Elia Moretti and Marika Smrekovรก
Field recordings, composition, mixed by John-Robin Bold, Anna Khvyl, Elia Moretti
Published by mappa in 2023

Marika Smrekovรก is a Slovak artist based in the Czech Republic, activist, feminist and mother. She studied theatre direction at the JAMU in Brno, where she is fulfilling her doctoral studies. In her dissertation, she reflects on her artistic research on participatory forms of performing arts within the framework of UM UM โ€“ the intercultural community and art festival, of which she was the founder and curator from 2012.

Elia Moretti is a musician, composer and researcher whose work revolves around contemporary music theatre and its intricate relationship with the ecology of sound. With a background in percussion and social sciences, Eliaโ€™s research explores the nature of sound performance, delving into sensory experience and the cognitive. Beyond the stage, Elia is interested in how artistic practices engage with the social contexts they emerge from or respond to.

๐Ÿš ๐ฟ๐ผ๐‘€๐ผ๐’ฉ๐’œ๐‘…๐ผ๐’ฐ๐‘€ ๐Ÿš Exhibition

๐Ÿš The group exhibition by Lesia Pcholka, Olga Bubich, and the duo of Nadya Sayapina and Eugene Buldyk /Mufer will be on display for the entire course of the festival in ECLAT Festival / Musik der Jahrhunderte from December 8 to 10. This anthology of works by Belarusian artists, commissioned by PlatformB.art addresses themes such as power dynamics, forced migration, and trauma.

๐Ÿš Lesia Pcholka's works are almost prototypical. In her work, she deals with mystical rituals in the context of political pressure emanating from authoritarian regimes. She names the deep trauma caused by the suppression of the Belarusian revolution in 2020 and traces the visual symbols that accompanied it. In doing so, she recites an ancient incantation whispered by healers to help cope with political exile and the impossibility of returning.

๐Ÿš Nadya Sayapina and Eugene Buldyk/Mufer will present a video - diary โ€žX Letters", which is a commemoration of statements, notes, memoriess, interviews, debates around individual and common emotional experience related to exile, loss of home and adaptation. Expressing an "urgent need to press th 'save button'", their project convert these archived materials to the "cronicle of the time".

๐Ÿš Olga Bubich wants to "feel the potential of memory as a space that belongs only to us, a space that we can and must make our own in times of memory censorship".
