Open House Residency oesterfeld04: Jelka Plate "Verschwinden zeigen"
"Verschwinden zeigen" (showing disappearance) tells of Jelka Plate's experiences with the performance projects “DisAppearances” and “Dickes Fell und faule Haut”.
The projects are about the process of slipping into a different skin, seeking contact with non-human beings as a gesture of adaptation and not of domination over ‘nature’. In various landscapes and habitats, Jelka Plate has made herself disappear with the help of special costumes. Her methods of disappearance will be shown and debated in oesterfeld04 using videos, texts and in a joint discussion. On 7 September, visitors will also have the opportunity to disappear in the wild garden of Oesterfeld in appropriate costumes.
Jelka Plate was an artist in residence at oesterfeld 04 in January 2024 and carried out her hibernation project here as part of ‘Dickes Fell und faule Haut’.
Parallel to "Verschwinden zeigen", the premises of the oesterfeld04 residency can be visited. The open house event is also intended to encourage the planning of future artistic/research projects in oesterfeld04.
