Since March 4, 2024, Larisa Crun\u021beanu (RO)<\/strong> \u2013 performer, video artist, and sound collector, has gathered numerous research findings in the city of Zagreb, visiting cultural sites, venues, and public sculptures. She met with several artists and curators, visiting studios and alternative art spaces. She participated in exhibition openings, performances, and events at universities and artistic organizations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The result of the residency is her new artistic work, tentatively titled ‘Paresthesia Greeting the Unknown,’ which will be exhibited at shows in Vienna, Zagreb, and Bucharest.<\/p>\n

She also participated in a weaving<\/strong> workshop<\/strong> by Croatian artist Nikolina Kne\u017eevi\u0107 Hrgovi\u0107<\/strong>. Additionally, on March 12, 2024, at 7:30 PM, she held a lecture<\/strong> and discussion with Nevena \u0160krbi\u0107 Alempijevi\u0107<\/strong> from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, in collaboration with the discursive program of the doctoral study at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb (AFAR Talk), at the Putolovac gallery.<\/p>\n

My residency in Zagreb started with a short period of learning about the neighbourhood and research into the plants from the garden, as initially I went down the path of creating an artwork using pigments from the flowers, leaves and rocks from the garden. Soon, I abandoned this path due to the early spring calendar (not so many leaves and flowers bloomed) and the sudden change of temperatures, which meant it was harder to be outside for longer. Instead, I have decided to work with cyano and textiles, in an attempt to capture not the time of the year, but the time of the day, literally, through stillness and movement of my body. Between sessions that depended largely on experiments with textiles and how sunny it was outside, I would visit local exhibition spaces, museums and artists, some of which educated me greatly (a notable mention would be MSU\u2019s exhibition on political performance in the 90s) or have inspired me in the way I understand collaboration and commonality as not just a method but also a result of artistic practices (for which I am very thankful to have been introduced to the Women for Women collective by WHW curator Ana Kova\u010di\u0107). Besides working on cyanos, I have had the pleasure of giving a short introduction to some of my works and the logic and contexts behind them in a live discussion titled Topographies of Love, together with prof. Nevena \u0160krbi\u0107 Alempijevi\u0107. Her questions and reflections were a great add to the conversation and offered me the chance to make some points more visible in the work, which otherwise would easily be missed by a foreign audience that encounters my work for the very first time. Towards the end of the residency I have also had the chance to learn more traditional techniques of working with textile, thanks to the workshop held by Nikolina Kne\u017eevi\u0107 Hrgovi\u0107 in her studio, which I think will be very useful in the further development of my journey through textile art.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
