»Excerpts from an email correspondence during the last week of March 2016, using images shot in or around Solitude and words exchanged across the ping-pong table, overheard in the corridors or borrowed from the internal mailing list.
The time did move forward on that Saturday and we were touched. Beyond that, any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.«Ana Hušman & Fotini Lazaridou-Hatzigoga
Fotini Lazaridou-Hatzigoga, Berlin/Germany — Design, Solitude fellow 2015–2017
Fotini Lazaridou-Hatzigoga works between the realms of art, architecture and urban research to explore the possibilities inherent in the intersections between social and physical spaces. Such context specificity finds working manifestation in curation, artistic production and collaborative organization, all of which point to an interest in structure as a dynamic of being and working together.
Ana Hušman, Zagreb/Croatia — Time-based Media, Solitude fellow 2016–2017
Ana Hušman’s practice disassembles the structures and textures of cinematic elements through film, installation, books, sound, image and text. Hušman experiments with the possibilities of animation, documentary and fictional cinematic methods, and the possibilities of the recorded voice and its articulation. Her working process questions and plays with the positions of the amateur and the professional subject of performativity, the medium itself, and the structures that dictate and produce patterns of behavior. She is a lecturer at the Department of Animation and New Media at the Academy of Fine Art in Zagreb, cofounder of the documentary film organization RESTART where she has been holding film education programs for children and young people for many years.
