Current Schloss Solitude resident Sarie Nijboer wrote a very nice text about my work for TEXTUR MAG proceeding from my soloshow TRUE at Muratcentoventidue in Bari.
Here is a snippet:
“Truth, in its deepest meaning, is not so much about rationally knowing, as it is about a feeling, a strong inner knowing for something that exists inside us. There is no question in truth, it is rather an answer that our body reveals. As a performer, the body can alternate moments of truth, resembling a movement, and thus function as a moment of sharing answers.
Everything that exists, carries some kind of performativity: Space, nature, human beings, identity – we all evolve and change. It is this performativity of life that is so tangible in the work of artist Chrischa Venus Oswald.”
