Andrea and Julia are presenting a new project at the invitation of the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid and Artea. Light Dark Light Heavy Archive consists of two interrelated parts: a dream mapping performance Walk on Water and a performative talk: What is stored in an archive? Is it an infinite library of information stored in books, objects or artworks?  Or is it codified experiences, knowledge, insights, sensations and their embeddement in the context that originated them. The knowledge stored in the archive can only be transferred once it is embodied and situated in the here and now. Can we look at artworks not as something to be archived but as archives of knowledge in themselves that need to be unpacked in order to be kept alive.

Light Dark Light Heavy Archive is a performative reflection on archiving attention, weather and dreams.

Andrea and Julia are developing contours for a new project A Mile of Wool in the first phase of research at Spectra Studio and presenting Episode 1 at Come Together 3 at Frascati. A Mile of Wool - Episode 1 is a choreography for a mile of wool, moving bodies, the theatre space, lights, colours and the audience present in it. Weaving spaces - resilience - organism. It is part of the long term project Spectra – space as an organism where the whole space and the audience’s presence in it is part of the work. There is no position outside. We are not in the space but we are space. Supported by DAS Research and the Amsterdam Fund for the Arts. With Setareh Fatehi Irani, Oneka Phon Schrader and Vinny Jones.

In January 2017, Julia and Andrea are working with Vinny Jones, hosted by DAS Research at the Grootlab theatre space.  We are looking into the relationship between light, memory and value: recording daylight and re-playing it during sunset, working with a sliding scale of daylight in overlap with the artificially produced lighting in the theatre space. Spectra - space as an organism research is supported by the research grant from DAS Research.

Andrea has received a research grant from DAS Research, Academy of Theatre and Dance Amsterdam for her ongoing research into space, attention and infrastructures in collaboration with Julia Willms within the framework of their long term project Spectra  - space as organism. We are very excited about the grant which will support an in-depth artistic - practical and theoretical research into several lines within the project, with a number of encounters and exchanges with colleagues and public presentations at the Frascati Theatre, DAS Research Grootlab, Spectra Studio, among others.
