Gwahoddiad - invitation

With many thanks to Ffiwsar, Utopias Bach has been invited to meet with Syndikat Gefährliche Liebschaften at Caban, Brynrefail over lunch on 14th January 2025.

If you would like to take part please let us know

Here is more about the Syndikat:

Syndikat Gefährliche Liebschaften was founded in 2013 and is now based in Quakenbrück, a small town in Lower Saxony, Germany. From there, the artist group connects with rural communities throughout Germany through socially engaged performing arts. 

The Syndikat is looking for stories of rural spaces that invite a change of perspective and show our interconnectedness. Sometimes theater is created, sometimes an exhibition or a radio play. Our expertise lies in artistic (field) research, site-specific intervention and in bringing together temporary communities. 

SYNDIKAT refers to a long-term or temporary association of people who pursue a common goal. GEFÄHRLICH stands for risk-taking. Behind the word LIEBSCHAFTEN is the fact that we look for allies in every place we are invited to, with whom we enter into relationships, negotiate issues and realize projects.

This month, you are invited to share poems relating to old women and mythology - Not just the "grand" stuff - classical myths and Jungian archetypes, etc. - but also all the old women of folk stories and fairy tales.

Please send your poems for this month to Iain: iain19biggs@gmail.com

Yn y Collaboratory hon, rydym yn eich gwahodd i ddod â chwyn gyda chi, i ddechrau archwilio'n greadigol gyda'n gilydd yr hyn y gallwn ei ddysgu oddi wrth a gyda chwyn?

Bydd y sesiwn hon yn adeiladu ar yr hyn a ddysgom yn Ysgol Arbrofol Dod yn Ein Coed yn 2023, a’n preswyliad yn Oriel Mostyn yn 2022. Ar ôl ychydig o archwilio chwyn creadigol, byddwn yn rhannu syniadau ynghylch a allwn adeiladu rhywbeth yn 2025, efallai ceisio cyllid i redeg rhyw fath o University of Weeds.

Byddai’n wych pe gallech chi a’ch chwyn ymuno â ni!

/|\

In this Collaboratory, we invite you to bring a weed along with you, to start to creatively explore together what can we learn from and with weeds?

This session will build on what we learned at Ysgol Arbrofol Dod at Ein Coed: Experimental TreeSense School in 2023, and our residency at Oriel Mostyn in 2022. After some creative weed explorations, we will share ideas on whether we might construct something in 2025, perhaps seeking funding to run some kind of University of Weeds.

It’d be great if you and your weed could join us!

“We need to begin to recognise how we could conspire with the plants – seeding plant-people conspiracies - connecting people and plants together to breathe together, justice for people, their plants, plants and their people” - Natasha Myers

Mae celf wedi ymwneud erioed â phrosesu, diogelu ac ailwampio profiadau. Ai storfa brofiadau yw celf?

Ond mae ymarfer celf sy'n canolbwyntio ar brosesau yn cynnwys llif yn hytrach na stasis. Sut mae archifo ymarfer celf sy'n canolbwyntio ar brosesau? Sut mae cynnal y llif?

Bu i Marcel Duchamp, artist Ffrengig-Americanaidd, greu amgueddfeydd cludadwy oedd yn cynnwys atgynyrchiadau o’i weithiau celf ei hun: “La Boîte-en-valise” (y blwch mewn cês). Dyma oedd ffordd Duchamp o fynd i'r afael â'r cwestiwn o sut i archifo ei waith celf. A yw hwn yn llif ymlaen i ni?

Ym 1999, aeth Christoph Schlingensief, artist Fluxus o’r Almaen, ar daith ar draws yr Almaen, gan gasglu 99 o eitemau mewn cês. Yna taflodd y cês i’r Afon Hudson. A yw hwn yn llif ymlaen i ni?

Ymunwch â ni am ymchwiliad perfformiadol i dactegau artistig i greu amgueddfa a dadwneud amgueddfa, i greu archif a dadwneud archif.

Mae croeso i chi ddod â chopïau bach o'ch gweithiau celf eich hun neu weithiau celf eraill i gael eu cynnwys yn yr ymchwiliad hwn.

Gall y perfformiad fod mewn dwy ran. Rhan un yn YOURS. Bydd rhan dau ar ffurf gorymdaith i faes parcio Glanrafon.

Art has always been about the processing, preservation and reworking of what has been experienced. Art works as repository for experiences?

However, process-oriented art practice consists in flux rather than stasis. How to archive process-oriented art practice? How to preserve this flux?

Franco-American artist Marcel Duchamp made portable museums containing reproductions of his own artworks: he called them his “La Boîte-en-valise” (The Box-in-a-suitcase). This was Duchamp’s way of addressing the question of how to archive his art. Is this a flux forward for us?

In 1999, German Fluxus artist Christoph Schlingensief went on a journey across Germany, collecting 99 items in a suitcase. He then jettisoned the suitcase  into the Hudson River. Is this a flow forward for us?

Join us for a performative investigation into artistic tactics to become museum and undo museum, to become archive and undo archive.

You are welcome to bring miniature replicas of your own or other artworks to be part of this investigation.

The performance might be in two parts. Part one in YOURS. Part two will take form as a procession to Glanarfon Car Park.

Mae symudiad y tyweirch yn ceisio rhyng-gysylltu tyweirch o wahanol leoliadau trwy ddod â phobl ynghyd trwy dechnegau gan ddefnyddio symudiad dilys a dull systemig. Mae gan bob tir rinweddau, priodewddau a chyfansoddion penodol sy'n eu diffinio o safbwynt ecolegol. Maent yn cyfathrebu'n fewnol ac yn allanol rhyngddynt a bodau eraill mewn ffordd symbiotig.

The turf movement seeks to interconnect turves from different locations by bringing together with people through techniques using authentic movement and a systemic approach. Each land has specific qualities, properties and constituents which defines them from an ecological perspective. They communicate internally and externally between them and other beings in a symbiotic way.

11.30yb/am Dydd Sadwrn 5.10.24 Saturday, Tyddyn Teg, Bethel

Taith cerdded dan arweiniad Emily Meilleur gan gario tywyrchen. Gwahoddir i chi gloddio darn o dyweirch, a cherdded gyda fo trwy diroedd Tyddyn Teg at y coed derw lle bydd myfyrdod pridd.

Bydd y tyweirch yn cael eu cario ar y pen yn ddelfrydol, ond gellir eu dal yn y dwylo, bag, basged neu boced.

Trwy osod y tyweirch ar ein pennau rydym yn ennill profiad gwahanol o bridd, gallwch chi deimlo ei bwysau, pa mor llonydd y mae'n rhaid i chi gadw'ch pen i gadw safle'r tywyrch arno, gallwch chi deimlo yr oerni y pridd llaith ac yn lle ein traed yn gwasgu yn erbyn y pridd, y mae yn pwyso ar goron ein penau.

//

A walk led by Emily Meilleur carrying turves. You will be invited to dig up a piece of turf, and walk with it through the lands of Tyddyn Teg to the oak trees where there will be a soil meditation

The turves will be carried ideally on the head, but can be held in the hands, bag, basket or pocket.

By placing the turf on our heads we are gaining a different experince of soil, you can feel the weight of it, how still you must keep your head to retain the turfs postion on it, you can feel the coolness of the damp soil and instead of our feet pressing against the soil, it is pressing on the crown of our heads.

At this Collaboratory, Gaia and Zen Redgrave invite you to join them in exploring:

Reimagining Evaluation

What if evaluation was a creative process that galvanised excitement and went beyond funders needs, statistics and allowed for true creative learning?

We are thinking about evaluation in a different way, what it could be and how it can add more value to you.

We would like to understand what you need from an evaluator. Often, although good, evaluation of projects can be wordy, report based and a funding necessity, but we believe it can be much more than that. We would like to offer something more creative that suits you as artists delivering projects that don’t fit into or desire to fit into the standard tick boxes, alongside providing for the needs of your funders.

Using the prompt…

‘If we reimagined evaluation as a creative process, what would you want from it and what could it look like?’

We would like to discuss, imagine and collect thoughts & desires to build into a new evaluation framework suited to your needs.

——-

We could bring in on our experiences in Utopias Bach, and the work of Francis Williams and Lisa Hudson in particular (see our evaluation frameworks on the Collaboratory page)

In the Cabinet Curiosity Shop in Deiniol Centre this Saturday at 1-2pm, Anna Powell, Poet and exponent of TreeSense and BeComing Tree will share her extraordinary methods for communicating with trees.

Using some sensory techniques in tree-language poetry as a springboard to begin, we will use intensive focus on plant, stone, feathers and other objects to explore practical ways of connecting with more-than-human elements in nature. We will share our creative responses to help us think further about how human interaction with the natural world might develop.
