GIREVIK, Roman Škadra

In the organizer's words:

"GIREVIK" is a performance with one man, a wooden floor and 200 kg of kettlebells. Roman Škadra moves heavy material. The kettlebells bounce noisily on the floor, forcing his body into a new shape with every movement. He precisely piles up the weights into sculptures, brings them down and starts again. A delicate game of movement, juggling and sound that continues to expand. In his second piece, Roman Škadra continues his exploration of the sluggishness of objects and questions the aesthetic effect of physical exertion. In "GIREVIK", he deconstructs an object that is surrounded by a hyper-masculine aura and is a symbol of strength, and searches for an alternative poetics of work.
