Moving in The Eleven by FKA Twigs. “The Eleven is a durational artwork, conceived by twigs and performed by a rotating group of eleven ‘movers.’ The piece, developed by twigs over many months, is a physical and artistic quest for self-healing, rooted – in part – in her decades spent in movement practice, somatic healing technique and by implementing conscious action on repeat. Twigs herself will participate alongside a changing cast of special guests. They will embody the method and record in real time the changes they feel in their mind and body.” The durational work was exhibited at Sotheby’s London 10:00-16:30 week days and 13:00-16:30 weekends, shared with both live viewers and via continual livestream on https://eusexua.fkatwi.gs/. Though I love to throw myself into the euphoria of full bodied movement there were moments in this performance that brought me silently to tears and where I learnt so much about myself through doing the most repetitive and seemingly simple movement. Thanks so much to @FKATwigs and the team for inviting me and for trusting me with a work like this.

The closing event of the duo show by @katyatsareva_artist and @alexander.tarasenko curated by @professional_art_bullshitter at @the_koppel_project ! 6:00 pm: ‘Coherence Protocol’ by @indexthumb Coherence Protocol presents a set of gestural rituals designed to reorient the body to physical perception following its digital transformation. 7:00 pm: ‘You Are Someone’s Son’ by @kuba_pawelczak The Butoh performance unfolds as a journey into the terrain of authority and relationships with symbolic teachers who remain embedded within our artistic and spiritual paths. 8:00 pm: ‘Lucida’ by @zarasands ft. @sophiamariedavison & @joshjsc_ Inspired by the illusion of objectivity and gendered distortion of sight – and of the body as a clear barometer for pain – Lucida invites audiences into a space where the boundaries between witnessing and perceiving begin to dissolve. — indexthumb is a moving image and dance artist exploring the body’s materiality when translated between physical and media forms. They focus on moving image’s capacity to alter, enhance, and reorient somatic awareness, and the parallels between these processes and queer/trans+ perception. Kuba Pawelczak is a Polish Butoh dancer, theatre maker, and movement practitioner based in London. His artistic practice is shaped through engagement with theories of psychophysical theatre. Zara Sands is an interdisciplinary artist working across performance, choreography, installation and moving image. Her practice focuses on utilising the body as malleable and illusive, with ideas stemming from dreamscapes, dystopias, body horror, the instability of perception, and the body as a site of distortion and metamorphosis. Sophia Marie Davison is a makeup and prosthetic artist working across film, fashion, and live performance. With a strong interest in storytelling, Sophia uses skin as a transformative canvas to create character-driven work. Josh Curtis is a London-based composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist whose cross-genre music brings together elements of classical, electronic and noise music. — Poster design: @katyatsareva_artist
