Psychedelica of Closed Systems/ Abyss Rising

вечер перформанса

Психоделика Закрытых Систем. Катя Волкова

Перформанс о мимикрии как стратегии выживания и одновременно — потере индивидуальности. Через хореографию, звук и работу с образом Катя Волкова исследует телесные механизмы адаптации к социальным ролям, офисной рутине и коллективным сценариям поведения.

Катя Волкова — междисциплинарная художница, хореограф и танцовщица. Участница программ Atlas и DanceWEB фестиваля ImPulsTanz. Живет и работает в Берлине.

Abyss Rising. Ню Симакина, Ника Blue, Егор Курчугин

Междисциплинарный перформанс о природе тревоги, раскрытой через метафору бездны. Голос, живой модифицированный звук и видео-проекции создают пространство внутреннего хаоса, где человек пытается найти путь к свету сквозь состояние постоянного напряжения.

Ню Симакина — перформанс-художница и кураторка, со-учредительница КП Радионица.

В коллаборации с медиа-художницей Никой Blue и музыкантом Егором Курчугиным.

performance evening

An evening of two performative works exploring anxiety, anonymity, bodily adaptation, and ways of existing within social systems. Through dance, sound, voice, and video, the artists approach states of dissolution, inner tension, and the search for embodied presence.

Closed Systems Psychedelia. Katya Volkova

A performance about mimicry as a survival strategy and, simultaneously, a loss of individuality. Through choreography, sound, and image work, Katya Volkova explores bodily mechanisms of adaptation to social roles, office routines, and collective behavioral scripts. The work exists at the intersection of dance, somatic, and performative practices, inviting the viewer into a state of attunement and observation of shifting bodily presence in space.

Katya Volkova is an interdisciplinary artist, choreographer, and dancer. Her practice explores communal situations, social landscapes, and embodied modes of communication. She has participated in the Atlas program and DanceWEB at ImPulsTanz festival. She is the curator of the laboratory “Club of Anonymously Dancing.” She lives and works in Berlin.

Abyss Rising. Nu Simakina, Nika Blue, Egor Kurchugin

An interdisciplinary performance on the nature of anxiety, unfolding through the metaphor of an abyss. Voice, live modulated sound, and video projections create a space of inner chaos, where a person searches for a path toward light through a continuous state of tension. The work combines sonic poetry, bodily presence, and visual environment, transforming the experience of anxiety into a collective sensory experience.

Nu Simakina is a performance artist and curator working with site-specific theatre, vocal and somatic practices, video art, and participatory art. She has participated in Russian and international festivals and contemporary art biennials, and is a co-founder of KP Radionica. The work was created in collaboration with media artist Nika Blue and musician Egor Kurchugin.
