During my practical and theoretical research in IAMAS including my participation in workshops and lectures I have developed a video performance project called “Mimesis”. The project is a part of my master research at Interface Cultures. Later the video project would ideally be a part of interactive sound installation including dance performance and audience active participation. The interactive part of the project I have started in IAMAS and will continue working on it back in Linz. The proje tangible ct is inspired by my strong impressions grown from experiencing Japanese culture. However I build on my previous theories and aesthetics considering a body as a playful disguise based on role models of social construct. In the video I create an intercultural hybrid performance that expresses my dual identity space – Czech and Japanese. I play with the symbols, metaphors and cultural codes contained in a Japanese traditional disguise. These codes can directly constitute and modify a body identity. I try to understand a link between traditional and contemporary cultural codes. I express a tension which I feel between a decorum and a hidden site full of passions.

 今回の展覧会では、日本とチェコの2カ国で制作された2つのビデオ・パフォーマンス作品が展示され、これによってレンカの母国であるチェコと日本の二元的アイデンティティスペースを表現し、異文化間の混成されたパフォーマンスがつくり出されました。
 日本での体験を通し制作された新作では、日本の伝統的な衣装と現代的な記号によって、日本における礼儀と隠された情熱の間から感じられた緊張感が表現されました。
 白い映像で表現された日本での作品に対し、チェコでの作品は黒い映像で表現されました。挑発的な映像と音をみせるこの作品は、ハンターとしてのアーティストに狩られるという体験を鑑賞者に与えます。


 展覧会の後は、リンツに帰るレンカのフェアウェルパーティを開きました。展覧会にお越しいただいたIAMASの創設者である坂根厳夫先生と、レンカの作品についての話やIAMAS創設に関する話をすることができる貴重な機会となりました。
今回お越しいただいたみなさま、ありがとうございました!

We had an exhibition-MIMESIS- of Czech artist Lenka who is a student from The University of Art and Design Linz in Austria.
At this exhibition two video performance works made in two nations, Japan and Czech Republic - Lenka's mother country, were exhibited. It expressed the dual identity space of Czech Republic and Japan by using intercultural hybrid performance. 
In the new work "Mimesis" made in Japan a tension which I feel between a decorum and a hidden site full of passions was expressed with a Japanese traditional disguise. 
The work in Japan was expressed with the white image. On the other hand the work in Czech Republic was expressed with the black image. In the second work called "Excursion to foreign territory" provocative images and sounds attract audience's attention. Artist as a metaphor of hunter tries to get the spectator's interest. If the spectators watch the video till the end they were caught by the artwork. If not, there is no satisfaction for artist - a work is open therefore unfinished.

At that time Mr.Sakane who founded IAMAS in 1996 came to this exhibition.
After the exhibition we had a farewell party for Lenka. At the party we had a good time talking with Lenka and Mr.Sakane. 
Thank you for coming.

Next event!
