what remains and is to come

what remains and is to come is a collaborative dialogue between
Katrina Brown and Rosanna Irvine . Taking a cross-disciplinary
approach to choreography, we are working with the materiality
of charcoal, paper, body and digital technologies - and with the
processes that are instigated through an examination of the
properties of these materials.

Snail Gallop And Other Scores


Katrina Brown and Malgven Gerbes in residency at
The Gallery, Dartington Hall, Devon, England.
21st - 26th June 2010


A dialogue of moving - drawing - thinking - writing - scoring -

An exchange of perspectives on drawing as part of a choreographic
practice.


The drawing is like a visual proposal of the creative choreographic
mind.
The drawing contains everything the performer brings and
knows; a past and the imminent future contained in the drawing.

ETS BEEST


a performance event for/with 2-4 year olds
Katrina Brown - movement/drawing
Han Buhrs
- voice/sound

ETS-BEEST is a participatory event with movement, drawing
and
voice. Around and upon a 5m by 3m sheet of paper, the
event is acting as a field of action in which the boundaries
between spectator-performer can blur.
The event is proposing a 'doing together', from which emerges
an art work of black traces on the flat paper surface.


ETSBEEST is touring Europe in schools, libraries, galleries,
theatres and community centres
including;
2011 La Rochelle, Lausanne, Rotterdam
2010 Brussels, Luxembourg, Grenoble
2009 Nantes, Salzburg, Helsinki, Charleroi, Brussels, Hamm

2008 Paris, Amsterdam

"emerging as an artwork from the foam of the everyday"






I have always been interested in what is contained in our
doing together; the bedtime reading, the playfight, the
talking, the drawing together. I am curious in the moments
(in)equality which seem to ignore mother/son, adult/child,
teacher/student divides and certain notions of knowledge.
I wanted to look closer at our 'doing together' and to see how
that might inform a choreographic practice.

Residency

I have a long relationship with the choreographic
centre, L'Animal a l'Esquena, in Celra, Catalonia,
Spain, who supported me during my MA with
the website project Archive of Traces and in 2007
in a collaboration with visual artist Alexis Blake.

An audience were invited to animate an installed
sp ace of folded, hanging and and projected pages.
In this period I also worked with the children of the
EMDC school in Celra.
