In the Making #5: Barbro Scholz and Li Lorian, Experiencing Text and Textile. In
this session researchers Barbro Scholz and Li Lorian ask the following
questions: How does light feel on the body? What sort of togetherness is there
in reading text?
They will explore tangible and intangible experiences of voice and textile
light. In their practice, both artists are interested in ways of communicating
aesthetic experience. Procedures of documentation and transmission bring up
questions concerning audience, spectatorship and participation in the art field
and artistic research. We aim to open up for participative thinking and valuing
aesthetic and experiential knowledge of ourselves and others.
Artist and designer Barbro Scholz deals with experiential qualities of tangible
(textiles) and intangible (light) materials, and how their interplay invites for
novel forms of performativity.
Performer and artist Li Lorian is interested in practices of reading text, to
oneself and outloud, voicing and finding new means of commonality. Both of them
have an interest in movement, affect, and entanglement to be investigated in a
playful, participatory, collaborative research. This session is a great
opportunity for them to find ways to share their yet unformulated thoughts in an
experiential method with an audience.

IN THE MAKING
The Academy of Creative and Performing Arts (ACPA) of Leiden University and Art
Institute West Den Haag are pleased to announce their close collaboration in the
new public series ‘In the Making’. In six public sessions they will present to
the public different practices of research in the arts.
Artistic production has always expressed the forms in which we know, explore,
and sense the world we live in. The current practice of research in the arts
consciously assumes this exploration. In the past decades the focus on research
in the domain of the arts has grown – as well as its role in universities and
other research contexts – expressing its engagement with the realities of the
world at large.
‘In The Making’ will address how artists conduct their research. Guest artist
researchers and artist researchers from Leiden University will present their
projects, approaches to research, methods and results. Each session will address
questions inherent to these projects. ‘In The Making’ aims to deepen a
perspective which conceives of artistic practice not as the sole product of
individual visionaries but as a collective endeavor embedded in society. It
addresses the role of art in the construction of the present and the creation of
possible futures.

Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum maakt tekeningen, schilderijen, installaties en
animaties. Haar werk refereert aan mythologie, geologie en theorieën over de
aard van het universum. Met verwijzingen naar literatuur, film, theater en
andere vormen van storytelling bouwt Sunstrum aan een voortdurend groeiend
verhaal. Gesitueerd in omgevingen die futuristisch en oud tegelijk ogen, vormt
het werk een lappendeken van herinnerde landschappen uit Sunstrums jeugd in
onder meer Botswana, Canada, Soedan, Sri Lanka, Malawi en Panama. Met een
schimachtige ‘cast’ van personages verkent ze ongrijpbare ideeën over jezelf
zijn en ergens thuishoren. KM21 presenteert Sunstrums eerste solotentoonstelling
in Nederland.
Foyer open vanaf 19.30 uur. Op zondag vanaf 14.15 uur.
Kaarten enkel via reserveren.
IMAGINATION: HONG KONG IN EXILE
The inaugural symposium, "ImagiNation: Hong Kong in Exile," is set to take place
in The Hague in 2024. As the home of international courts, The Hague perfectly
embodies the symposium's commitment to universal justice.
Structured around three overarching themes— "Preserving Identity," "Artistic
Activism," and "Cultural Reshaping"— the symposium aims to comprehensively
explore the past, present, and future of the artistic and cultural development
of the overseas Hong Kong diaspora. Scholars, advocates, and artists from across
the globe are invited to discuss deeply into Hong Kong's resilience amid ongoing
changes, contributing to the construction of a future for the displaced people
of Hong Kong.
Join us for an unforgettable symposium featuring inspiring discussions,
interactive workshops, and performances at ImagiNation: Hong Kong in Exile!
Let's celebrate the Lion Rock spirit of Hong Kong and the resilience of its
people. Get ready to listen to powerful stories of hope, courage, and
determination from Hong Kong's diaspora.

Art Without Soul? Embodiment and Historical Performance
Modern performance critics often scorn nineteenth-century actors and musicians,
assuming that because they placed emphasis on exaggerated shapes and gestures
they were merely showboating — engaging in empty posturing — rather than
performing from the soul. Treatises of the period, however, suggest that this
visual and sonic hyper-physicality was the means by which these performers
generated, channeled, and communicated emotion; that they understood their art
as originating not from the soul but from the body. Engaging with these
practices today, therefore, is a necessarily embodied rather than abstract,
intellectual endeavor; one that handles the performing body (both past and
present) as a rich, creative resource rather than a soulless distraction.
