This month ResidenceSEA is\u00a0hosting two artists from Estonia:
\nNele Suisalu<\/a>\u00a0(dancer and vocal artist)\"12234882_10153285039408295_1846029394420543677_n\"<\/a> and
\nMaarja T\u00f5\u0015nisson<\/a> (dancer and performance artist).\"10409109_959615407400052_2278407615317389843_n\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They call themselves\u00a0hackers of the human body-voice-mind<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

The working title for their collaboration is\u00a0Affectspace<\/strong>. Quoting the artists: “Affectspace is\u00a0<\/em>a\u00a0performative work relying on two-voiced and two-bodied hybrid entity aiming to create a multi-sensorial space for the spectator\/experience or to take place in. Considering movement\/sound to be a trigger of the a\u001fffective reaction process within each and every audience member. Voice as a body part. Dance as vibrations in the body.<\/em><\/p>\n

We are interested in research-oriented and curiosity-based art: our final forms are defined by experimenting with the chosen materials and feeding them on feedback. We are focusing on opening up and entering into subject-matters as phenomena to be discovered and made perceptible. The meaning-making lies in trying to connect with audience and to absorb it into the present moment and experience. We consider movement\/sound to be a sensory a\u001fffective process within each and every audience member. <\/em>\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The artists<\/a> will stay at ResidenceSEA until the end of February. Below we show some of their previous works:<\/p>\n
