Hey Berlin! 🪟 Next Saturday (18.04) at 17h, we're opening our doors for a special community event with amazing artists from Mexico! **« J'ai trouvé des fenêtres dans les murs »**, an exhibition and live animation performance by @celestialbrizuela , with Carlos Domville + analog visuals by Alejandro Marra. The work dives into colonial archives to pull out hidden stories of migration, resistance, and survival, told through sculpture, animation, and poetry. Sugar, indigo, and the bodies that built empires we still carry with us. Heavy roots and delicate hands. 📍 @lausebleibt Lausitzer Str. 10, 10999 Berlin Come through, bring someone, stay for the conversation. 💙

Segura uma concha. Escuta uma história. 🐚 E se o oceano pudesse falar? Que histórias nos contaria? 📅 Sábado, 7 de março 🕙 10h00–17h00 📍 Rio Neiva 👥 Aberto a todas as pessoas (14+) 👤 Vagas limitadas 🎟 Participação gratuita 👉 Inscrição obrigatória – link na bio Não é necessária experiência prévia. O que trazer: Roupa quente e calçado à prova de água para a caminhada. Se tiveres um computador portátil, também o podes trazer, desejavalmente com o TouchDesigner instalado. No âmbito da residência artística S+T+ARTS AQUA MOTION, as artistas do projeto Sea Shells, She Tells convidam para uma oficina intensiva de um dia na Rio Neiva — um encontro entre escuta profunda, memória, escrita criativa e tecnologia interativa. Durante a manhã, caminhamos junto à água. Observamos, escutamos, recolhemos sons, imagens e memórias. Conchas escondidas pelo percurso convidam-nos a revisitar a nossa relação com o oceano. À tarde, exploramos essas recolhas através da escrita e da imaginação: Como recorda a água? Como sente o tempo uma alga? Por fim, introdução ao TouchDesigner e a sensores táteis Playtronica — pequenas experiências onde objetos naturais podem ativar sons e histórias digitais. Uma concha que guarda uma memória. Um fragmento de paisagem que responde ao toque. @movementimage @startseu @parquenaturallitoralnorte @municipio_de_esposende @marinadolbeth @jopsrosa @luiscfernandes #STARTSAquaMotion #STARTS #SeaShellsSheTells #ArteCiênciaTecnologia #EscutaProfunda #MemóriaDoOceano #Esposende #RioNeiva #OficinaCriativa

🏺 Residência em foco: “Sea Shells, She Tells”, por Helin Ulas e Rita Eperjesi No âmbito do desafio “Novas Águas, Velhas Histórias – Regenerar o Património Cultural Ligado à Água”, destacamos a residência liderada por Helin Ulas (Turquia) e Rita Eperjesi (Hungria), artistas e investigadoras que trabalham na interseção entre arte, tecnologia, ciência e comunidade. 💧 “Sea Shells, She Tells” propõe um gesto simples e poderoso: transformar a ansiedade climática em agência climática. O projeto parte de uma observação quase infantil — ao encostar uma concha ao ouvido, ouvimos o mar — para lançar uma pergunta maior: E se o oceano pudesse realmente falar? Que histórias nos contaria sobre as mudanças que está a viver? A partir de dados científicos, histórias locais e património costeiro, o projeto procura dar voz à água e reforçar a centralidade da justiça climática, mostrando como a arte pode criar pontes entre diferentes saberes e atores. O projeto materializa-se em três eixos: • uma instalação site-specific em Esposende; • um fluxo contínuo online, onde as histórias da água se desenrolam; • um kit para que qualquer pessoa possa construir o seu próprio Shell Phone. Mais do que um objeto, pretende-se criar uma comunidade de pessoas atentas — pessoas que atendem quando a Natureza liga. 📞🌊 Nos primeiros meses da residência, Helin e Rita estiveram em Esposende a conhecer o território, as pessoas e as histórias ligadas ao mar. Atualmente, encontram-se a investigar sargaço, conchas, materiais e abordagens conceptuais, preparando os próximos passos. 💧 Sobre as artistas: Helin Ulas é académica e artista, investigando o modo como a tecnologia molda a cultura e impacta comunidades, trabalhando com a água como metáfora e arquivo vivo. Rita Eperjesi é tecnóloga criativa e artista, explorando narrativas e tecnologias acessíveis através de métodos lúdicos e participativos. @helinulas @ritaeperjesi @kanape.studio @startseu @marinadolbeth @luiscfernandes @parquenaturallitoralnorte @jopsrosa @municipio_de_esposende @movementimage @seilafdza #STARTS #STARTSAquaMotion #SeaShellsSheTells #NovasÁguasVelhasHistórias #Esposende #Água #ArteCiênciaTecnologia #Comunidade

Opening, Friday nov 21st 19:00-22:00 @kanape.studio Elkin Calderón Guevara and Paula Niño Ramírez humo Stripped of their original function, ceramic objects emerge as autonomous characters that reveal a life of their own, forming an inverted spatial landscape where the gaze no longer comes from human beings, but from the everyday actions of inanimate objects and street furniture that is normally discarded. From outside, the viewer observes this silent choreography through the window, a scene in which the familiar becomes uncanny and the ghostly city unfolds without the need for human presence. See you there!!!

We're extremely proud to lend our window to Davide Lantermoz @lantermoz and his upcoming exhibition "Rhythmic Structures". Join us this Friday 10.10 at 19:00 for the opening. Davide Lantermoz is an Italian artist, working between Berlin and the dolomites. “Rhythmic Structures” showcases a series of objects, integrated into a three-dimensional structure born to build a rhythmic dialogue with a specific window exhibition space. The assemblages and sculptures on display arise from the process of juxtaposing materials, manipulated or directly in their raw state, sounding out their visual characteristics, aesthetic rhythm, before being shifted by cognition, reason, culture and rhetoric. “In a context of abundant imagery, narratives, information, and a collapse of cultural codes, there is a need to understand things as they are, not to create new representations, but to grasp parts of reality. I seek this reality by discovering new relationships between materials, their rhythms, and ultimately their beauty.”
