VOID FRACTION - Cyrff Corsiog / Peat Bodies
Views of our actions and objects at Cors Bodeilio, a living peatland reserve on Anglesey.
On the 31st of October, 2023 we were immersed in two hours of looping Void Fraction performative sculptures together with Manon Awst and Teddy Hunter.
Curated/created by Manon Awst as part of ‘Sticky Sculptures’ and supported by Natural Resource Wales and Arts Council of Wales.
Limestone additions, performative sculptures, activated scenes.
Objects and actions to note place, create time and enlighten the imagination.
Channeling the underground limestone that forms and feeds this unique terrain.
“The thought did enter my mind...what if everything else had gone...it was you, me, our actions, these stones, this ground, caught in our loop for the rest of time? The thought was not frightening. There was a peacefulness to the idea - purposeful, meaningful, fulfilling, fulfilled”
[en] performative sculpture (or performative installation)
an art event that combines found objects, sculpture and performance. Artwork activated and completed by live human activities. The area can be considered an art installation when actions are complete. Within the ongoing Void Fraction project, a series of these events have emerged, each carefully planned and designed incorporating the environment, timings and the audience. The collaboration between Mari Rose Pritchard and Julie Upmeyer has found voice in these performances.
