Human Population : Västerås 2020
- 2020
-
Konstnärligt arbete (refereegranskat)abstract
- I Human Population tar konstnären med en grupp deltagare på en guidad tur genom stadscentrum. Framför olika byggnader och på gator breder hon ut en stor genomskinlig byggplast på marken.Ett frottage (en gnuggbild) med pastellkrita växer fram och synliggör markens struktur. Samtidigt berättar Torell om tillgänglighet som en mänsklig rättighet. Om rösträtt och inkludering. Om asfalt mot vågiga betongplattor - inte för att de är dekorativa, utan för riktningarna de skapar för den som har nedsatt syn. (Katrin Ingelstedt/Västerås konstmuseum)

Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle) – performance lecture
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Jakarta, MACAN Museum, 13 Jan 2024.
-
Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This performance lecture is based on an eponymous installation of 115 charcoal and graphite drawings the artist made in 2019, which was based on a text published in 2018. It questions the nature of reality and the building block of human knowledge, which is perceived mainly through humankind’s limited senses, the main part of which is the eye. At an allegorical level, it interrogates how our understanding of the world is largely constructed visually and recorded through memory, and how these are also prone to manipulation, for example in state propaganda and isolated versions of state-sanctioned history. --- Art does not merely articulate an artist’s personal expression but is often inseparable from a larger historical, political, and geographical context. To kick off the 2024 Museum MACAN public programs, artist/researcher Tintin Wulia presents a performance lecture and discussion session, Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle). Exhibited as 115 illustrations drawn with charcoal and graphite, Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle) presents a connection between major world events scattered across different times and places, and how these events are recollected by humans. As the subject navigates through ideas surrounding reality, frailty of memory, and human geography and history, Wulia interrogates what we believe to be reality is constructed largely from our sensory perception, state-sanctioned histories, and fragile memories of humans.

Madness and The Bastard in Motion: Learning/Teaching through Performance Studies (in Tilburg)
- 2015
-
Ingår i: 7th Teachers' Academy 2015 ENACT: learning in/through the Arts Tilburg, The Netherlands.
-
Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper performs a dialogue/an encounter between Madness (or the false mad Demidamia from the opera La Finta Pazza performed in Venice in 1641) and the Bastard (the illegitimate love child of arts, performance and education). Entangled they move through time, talking, confronting, shaping and diffracting a non‐existing form. Their method is about diffracting every inch of their journey. Meeting obstacles, facing resistance, walking into bubbles of flair and comfort, stepping into dilemmas and borderlands. Continuously asking themselves: What happens in the microscopic moment? When no/thing could even be imagined. On their way they challenge both time and existence. Learning through teaching through learning. Their journey is an ornamenting becoming in itself. It is an example of mattering as in meaning-‐making and knowledge processing, based on a performance of the indeterminable and affinity. The outcome in the performative encounter in itself – a potential model for teaching and learning in higher arts education.

In the archival multiverse, the blubber decays but the fever increases. : A contribution to VIOLENCE: the fourth biennial PARSE Research Conference at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, University of Gothenburg, Sweden.

Konstnärligt arbete (film/video) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The presented work is composed by Marc Johnson — a memory worker — who is currently a Ph.D. candidate in performative and media-based practices at the Stockholm University of the Arts. The shared perspectives are engaging issues of violence from the center of an artistic practice-based research focused on archival practices and concerned with how a documentary heritage circulates, is formed, debated, shared, and re-interpreted.The lecture-performance starts by considering the “Rights of Nature” — from recent environmental litigations in Aotearoa (New Zealand), Bolivia, and Ecuador — which focus on the idea of legal standing. What does it take to enforce the legal personhood of a river or other natural entities?Marc Johnson investigates and reflects on some ways to deal with representations of murdered bodies — human and more-than-human (cellular life forms) — without replicating historical patterns of abuse? Under what conditions shall these documents, artifacts, or, images be seen?Marc Johnson collaborates with Hitomi Ohki 大木瞳 — Soprano singer — to expose how polyphony[1] and counterpoint[2] applied to cinema can be used practically to navigate the uncertain archive(s) of violence studies.Marc Johnson addresses the dynamics of archival silences[3] and archival amnesty[4] as an important reminder of the ways in which violence — despite its presence in the everyday life of most people mainly through paper-based, and online news media (including social networks) — can also be deeply buried and invisible through institutional and corporate powers and other means; nonetheless impacting the lives of ordinary people (as opposed to powerful people, military, political and business leaders).The proposal does not intend to resolve; but rather to expose and to put oneself in the presence of using the means of montage.Skepsis is the deployed strategy throughout the duration of the time-based work as defined by Jacques Derrida as a “vigilance, and attention of the gaze during an examination. […] One is on the lookout, one reflects upon what one sees, reflects what one sees by delaying the moment of conclusion.”[5] [1] A process of combining two or more voices so that they harmonize with each other but maintain their individuality.[2] A process of adding one or more melodies as an accompaniment to a given melody according to certain fixed rules; a composition in which melodies are thus combined.[3] Rodney G.

Allmänningen/The Common Room
- 2023
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Allmänningen/The Common Room was a Vinnova-funded project at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, Gothenburg University (2018–2021). The aim of the project was to begin to develop and pilot a new public model for collaboration and usership between the university and society. Referring directly to the Swedish commons concept of Allmänningen and illustrated through terms such as Allmän (general), Allemansrätten (right of public access), Allmänheten (the general public), the commons can be viewed as not only a right to public access, but a relation between societal institutions and the individual citizen. A relation which within the context of Sweden, could and should naturally be applied and extended to the publicly funded university as a common societal resource. Although there are differences between the natural commons studied by influential figures such as Elinor Ostrom and the university as ‘commons’, the analogy stresses the relational dimensions between viable and sustainable institutions, and the public trust in the commons & its resources. Through a series of residencies in 2021, Allmänningen (The Common Room) began by inviting practitioners, collectives and organisations to help think through questions of what kind of common resources are produced within the university? How can these resources be developed as public commons? In what sense are these resources enclosed, vulnerable and at risk of exploitation? And what is needed today to produce a socially sustainable institution? By addressing these questions, the residencies through scholarship and practice piloted and began to suggest alternative modes and models for university collaboration and usership. Allmänningen/The Common Room prototyped residencies with Sandi Hilal (DAAR), Post Workers Theatre, Kulturhuset Blå Stället and Åbäke. Through four posters with edited interviews, transcriptions and commissioned texts the overall publication provides a comprehensive overview of the residency outputs and intentions.
