Her performances take place in architectural and outdoor environments, where she uses everyday materials\u2014stone, wood, textile\u2014that are transformed into new forms through simple, continuous actions like wrapping, filling, releasing, twisting, stretching, dropping, inflating\u2026 All these actions relate to the experience of boundaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Katja Schenker will perform at the opening of the exhibition in the main hall. With her performance <strong>Sehnen, 2018\/19<\/strong>, she explores the possibilities of connecting radii. In the attic, documentation of her works will be presented, along with samples from previous performances and installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Katja Schenker.

Using 52 hand-made Serbian bricks, the artist builds a base that closes the space between her hands and the ceiling, creating a living, supporting sculpture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Katja Schenker. halten so lange sie h\u00e4lt \/ last as long as she lasts, 2017<\/strong><br>Photo: Ren\u00e9e Lou Jungo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.katjaschenker.ch\">www.katjaschenker.ch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-1944","blog","type-blog","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/warped-development.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/1944","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/warped-development.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/warped-development.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/warped-development.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1944"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
