Events
unspace has invited artists Magdalena Forster and Milena Georgieva with their performance Bile.
Bile introduces an arcane character referred to as a myth, a host, and a lover. The nameless protagonist emerges from kinetic and sonic archives as if emulating movements and intonations observed and felt over the years. Verse after verse, they whisper admirations into your permeable skin and giggle at the aftermath of your desires. They shrug off a multitude of vices but swallow any malice. That being is caring yet un-attached, igniting compassion in your upper gut, mirroring your temper, and endlessly practising the erotic way of letting go.
Magdalena Forster is a dance and performance artist, choreographer and trained health and nursing professional.
Her works flirt with the potential of the unfinished and indeterminate, turning to personal documentation, kinetic archives and memories. Her artistic work has been supported by the BMKÖS-Startstipendium for performing arts 2020, project grants from the City of Innsbruck, the Province of Tyrol and several residencies.
Milena Georgieva is a composer, transdisciplinary artist, and performer. Her focus lies on speculative world-making, sprouting out of deep research in sound and music, landscape theory, queer feminism, education and body and identity politics. She seeks a fluid, unbound sense of sound, music and listening and transgresses genres to grow multidimensional bodies of sound. Composition grants by the City of Vienna, 2022/23. BAZA award nomination, 2019.
