Artist Sally Chessell in conversation with Elia Bosshard and Ira Ferris, on the making of their book SPACE BODY HABIT, and the themes explored in it. Held at Frontyard (Sydney) on 12th December 2021. 

SPACE BODY HABIT explores the many ways we perceive, or fail to perceive spaces, and offers a number of phenomenologically-driven exercises designed to enhance our awareness of space and its impact on our day-to-day life. For more about the book see this page: https://www.artemisprojects.com.au/space-body-habit/ira-ferris-elia-bosshard

Our place of gathering - Frontyard - is on the Gadigal and Wangal land of the Eora nation. We pay our respect to the ongoing custodians, elders past, present, and emerging. 

Thank you to all those who have engaged with the book in some capacity. This is an unfinished work, our thoughts fluid and left open; hopefully the beginning of many more conversations. Feel free to write to us on your experiences with the book, and the questions it raises, on spacebodyhabit@gmail.com

SONIDO GALLO NEGRO - EUROPEAN TOUR 2015

15.03.2015 – ES – Lleida – Mud. Festival Músiques Disperses
20.03.2015 – FR – Lyon – ElectroChoc Festival
21.03.2015 – BE – Dixmuda – AB-Clubcircuit – AB @ 4AD

Sonido Gallo Negro (Black Rooster Sound) is a stunning 9-piece, instrumental combo from east Mexico City (Aragon) that channels both the mystique and mysticism of 1960’s Peruvian cumbia. The band integrates styles like Amazonian cumbia, huayno, sonidero cumbia, boogaloo and chicha with electric guitars, Farfisa organ, Theremin, flute and of course fluid Latin percussion. Spaghetti western soundtracks, psychedelia and surf music also echo in their compositions.

The name of the song 'Chamula (métete)' comes from San Juan Chamula, a little town in Chiapas (a Mexican state in the South of the country). Most of the people there are Chamulas and Tzetzales (Mexican first nation) and their lives are full of traditional sounds and a unique way of seeing the Universe. The song documents a cruel battle between the Chamulas and Tzetzales and the state Goverment in 1869.

What does a gut feeling sound like?

Eleanor Zurowski, this year’s columnist, is producing sonic responses in response to each issue of Framework in 2019. Each piece will be an accumulation of field recordings, samples, lecture snippets, spoken word and contemporary music. For this issue, Eleanor is exploring the fugitive eruptions of, and leaks from, the body. Breathing in, crying out, rumbling, whistling, swallowing spit, belching, erupting into tears; extra-linguistic moments when our bodies speak for – or to – us.

What does a gut feeling sound like? - Eleanor Zurowski - Framework #25

Conversation with Swedish artist Fanny Hellgren whose works explore the properties and agencies of materials - be it paper, concrete, cloth, or water - and the way they transform when exposed to the elements such as sun or time. 

In this podcast recorded in Belgrade, Serbia where Fanny was on an artist residency, we delve deeper into Fanny’s interest in materiality and in-between spaces, the process and methodology of making works, her preferred ways of exhibiting them, and what role patience plays in both making and viewing art.

Houses II

The house that was growing, 
while you were cooking,
had too much concrete,
too many doors  and 
too many crevices
to become a home.

It had too many walls,
against which anger and sadness were banging,
without being flushed through the drain.

The silence of long afternoons,
needles knitting by themselves,
chamber pots motionless under the beds. 

There were no blankets woollen enough
to cover the winter evenings
and mornings that followed.

The switched on lights were signals falling through.
Slides of words were bouncing off big heavy carpets
like dust
on the floor.

Words: Manca Klun
Sounds: Alessandro De Oliveira Bastos
