Anemoi, Isabel Castro Jung

“Anemoi”, built of recycled sails, is a sculpture inspired by the wind. I believe that it holds in it the power of all the wind that once hit it. It is a symbol for travelling, migration and nomadism. The performance questions on one hand the capacity of adaptation of an individual and on the other hand the suitability of the environment. This leads to an open-ended project that finds itself in continuous working process, which is made visible to the audience as a physical action.

The performer, contained and constrained within the work, finds herself in a situation of tension and release, trying to make the sculpture work relating it to the environment, and attempting to conquer the space through the forced movement of the work. The performer is both restrained by the work but enabled by the piece as it allows s/he to create form and meaning.
