Ivu'kar - multidisciplinary performance
Ivu’kar is a multidisciplinary performance combining contemporary music, text, movement, and film in an immersive experience. For his residency at Kulturfabrik, Portuguese artist Grilo will be joined by his long-time collaborator, dancer and artist Inês Campos. His new creation Ivu’kar explores the intimate and political dimensions of the mother-child relationship and the realm of care through rituals, habits, and autobiographical moments. During their residency, the two artists will work on the interaction between movement and text, experimenting with texts transcribed in Morse code. The underlying text, which the project is based on, was co-written by João Grilo and his mother; it is inspired by an imaginary language they began creating together during the artist's childhood. Inspired by Paul Valéry's poetic phrase “What would we be without the help of that which does not exist?”, Ivu’kar endeavors to make the subliminal tangible, translating it into light, movement, Morse code, piano, and shared rituals.
