Annie Abrahams, Lisa Parra, Daniel Pinheiro - Distant Feeling(s) #2
When meeting online we face a lack of references that usually define the perception of ‘being’ somewhere at a given time. This object aims at discussing, within the possibilities of networked performance, the mediation itself and, particularly in this case, by removing the fundamental sense that allows connectedness to happen in a mainly visual rationalized culture we question the following: what are we left with?

Distant Feeling(s) #2 will be the second encounter between the three artists. The artists will meet according to the rules of this encounter (see below) and the event will be livestreamed directly. After collaborating with Annie Abrahams in LAND PROJECT: Placelessness (October, 2015) the experiencing of “distanced feeling” between Lisa and Annie the invitation from Annie was to experience it, all three, together. An online séance where the main goal was to experience each other’s presence while with eyes closed. The sense of proximity or intentions of provoking a telematic coordination of movements diluted into a journey of each individual approach on experiencing a shared moment in time (what time?!).
Annie Abrahams has been working and researching on online performance for more than 10 years now. In her work she addresses the limitations and possibilities intrinsic to mediated communication and focuses on how to develop an aesthetics of attention and trust while online. Lisa Parra is a New York based choreographer and performer. Daniel Pinheiro is a visual artist and performer working from Portugal.
LAND PROJECT is, since 2013, an ongoing collaboration and research project between artists Lisa Parra and Daniel Pinheiro that focuses on investigating the possibilities for sensing one another while physically distant. A project that does not encloses in itself a final result but, rather, exists in multiple objects/encounters that address specific questions mostly related to the mediation of the body in the digital sphere. It has been showcased in different contexts and formats internationally.
