Nairy Eivazy, new PhD researcher: The Objects We Carry, the Memories We Share

Diaspora communities are groups of people that maintain a myth or collective memory of their homeland as their true home. They carry with them objects that are representative of their roots and create a sense of home alongside objects that represent their everyday life and multicultural identity. These objects can be considered cultural heritage as a tangible manifestation of a form of memory identified in a spectrum: starting from what has been directly inherited from one’s own family to that which remains of a group of people who lived hundreds of years ago. Bringing such objects together in a stop-motion animation and allowing the community to participate in the animation process will support the collective understanding of these objects. Furthermore, this process will contribute to the reconstruction of the collective memories stored and frozen in these objects, as stop-motion has already proven to be a way to evoke those memories through its visual appearance, animation potential and the haptic senses it triggers.

Focusing on objects of the Armenian diaspora, this artistic research seeks to study the links between formal elements of animated film and participatory practice to investigate participatory stop-motion animation by objects as a cultural heritage performance.

METHODS OF DANCE

OPEN CALL BY LUCA IMAGE / ART & ARGUMENT

SYMPOSIUM METHODS OF DANCE

 "METHODS OF DANCE is not only a song by the group Japan from the 80s, it invites you to think about possible links between method and art, too. What is a method in artistic research? How does it work? What is the difference between searching and researching, method and doing?

On METHODS OF DANCE we will discuss this subject.

Keynote speaker is Alain Franco. As classic piano player he collaborates with Anne Theresa De Keersmaeker on dance performances, in the complex field of combining choreography, music and stage performance. Structure is needed to make this happen, methods, too. What can we learn from this experience in the fine arts, in design? What kind of methods do we use? How do we make methods transparent for others?

The symposium takes place on Friday 12 October 2018 at

LUCA School of Arts, Campus Sint-Lucas, Alexianenplein 1, 9000 Ghent, Belgium.

If you like to present your example of methods in artistic research, please send us your proposal and portfolio via mail.
