Patty Morgan Showroom, Amsterdam
duoshow with Ruchama Noorda
Ruchama Noorda and Eva Spierenburg meet you in a making of their subconscious. In a dimly lit dwelling the artists/alchemists evoke a collective memory, while unearthing their bodies’ place in art and the tactility of their environment.
The floor feels cold and there is definitely water dripping from somewhere. Scattered across the room are objects and tools. Vehicles that hold powers unknown to us.
Movements can proceed without instruction, as ceremony unfolds. A little altar suggests meaning. You may not yet know your part, but traces of presence prove a shared past. A scorched serpent is used for cleansing. Break it down to its pieces and carve into your flesh. You are supposed to be here.
