BREATH AND MEMBRANE presents two of Stella Geppert`s central works: COMMUNICATION CAPTURES (2019) and the INSIDET cycle (2020/22). Within these works the artist explores empathic connection and energetic states of embodied communication. The BREATH AND MEMBRANE catalog, designed as a folding book, is a sequel to SCORES AND SCULPTURES, published by Distanz Verlag in 2019. It contains two posters folded into booklets and held together by an elastic band to create a fanfold. BREATH AND MEMBRANE presents two of Stella Geppert`s central works: COMMUNICATION CAPTURES (2019) and the INSIDE T cycle (2020/22). Within these works the artist explores empathic connection and energetic states of embodied communication. Breathing is used as a sculptural material to energize the space, and intuitive head movements are recorded immediately by body orthoses. Stella Geppert's graphic, choreographic and performative work uses the medium of drawing as a sculptural trace and abrasion of human interaction. The body's ability to sensuously enter into space, body and substance is an important aspect of Stella Geppert's work. Based on its biological constitution, she views the human body as a fragile and vulnerable membrane that is involved in a constant communicative exchange with other bodies and living beings. BREATH AND MEMBRANE showcases the works COMMUNICATION CAPTURES and INSIDE-T to present Stella Geppert's investigation of communicative potentials and invisible behaviors of the human body as text and images, and how she intensifies these in her more recent works.weiterlesen
