Neighbors project in Jerusalem, at Al Mamal Foundation


Neighbours
Performance/Tour 28 & 29 October 14:00 – 18:00
Al Zahra Street


Without even stepping outside your apartment or house, there they are, your neighbors. They frame your daily life as well as your domestic life through direct or indirect contacts with you, giving your surroundings its characteristic atmosphere, colors, endurance. Any single conglomeration of people´s dwellings produces a neighborhood. Divided by walls, fences, yards, windows and doors, neighborhood is an almost universal phenomenon.

Neighbors proposes a walk in silence and with chairs through the key places and atmospheres of a pre-chosen area, in the sense of the situationists’ turntables, places inhabited by practices and habits, sort of portals leading from one urban atmosphere to another. Considering neighborhood as a geographically localized community within a larger city, town or suburb with certain patterns and uses of space and time, our interest lays in creating links or making visible its present ties and structure.

About Me

Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Rio de Janeiro. I am a performing artist and art maker coming from dance. I love to dialogue with the historical, material and affective context we are immersed in any given situation. As art form, my work goes from multimedia stage conceptual work to convivial and open-air pieces. It strikes me the awareness and fictions arising from the sublime of daily situations, its materiality, the reference points that we cling to and build up our relation to reality and how meaning grows from this. contacts: gustavociriaco@gmail.com | marine@elclimamola.com
