Rosa Vrij
body - performance - public space - artistic research
My work moves through the interspaces of drawings, architecture,
performance, installations, publications and text. Between body and space, the I and the
other, performer and audience. I am a researcher, a responder and leaving
always from the context given to me. This can be a location, literary
references, the audience or a collaboration partner such as a performer. I'm looking for
where time and space, form and content and context merge so that you no longer know
where one begins and the other ends. Like a sculptor I make shapes
to remove material. As a result, I reduce situations to their physical or
philosophical core. Work I've created ranges from a performative book presentation, an interactive installation, to an essay composed entirely of quotes, and is shown within both the visual arts and theater sectors.
