AIAV Artist in Residence Program "trans_2009-2010"
10 January 2010 - 20 March 2010
For 70 days from 10 January to 20 March 2010, Australian visual artists Claire Healy and Sean Corderio will be collaborating with Argentine dancer Valeria Roxana Primost and Japanese visual artist Takehito Shiina during the "AIAV (Akiyoshidai International Art Village) trans_2009-2010" residency program.
Currently based in Berlin and Sydney, Healy and Corderio engage in a variety of projects in different cities and countries. They began collaborating in 2001 at COFA, University of New South Wales. They make dynamic installations in which they explore issues of architecture, nomadism and space invasion. They co-represented Australia at the 53rd Venice Biennale, 2009, and in Akiyoshidai, plan to use Lego bricks to reconstruct the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986.
Valeria Roxana Primost and Takehito Shiina will work with the duo during the time to make work which addresses similar themes of nomadism and architecture. They will also give workshops, school visits, open studio and an exhibition of the works produced over the time.
