CORPUS ARTISTA

an artistic autopsy

Corpus Artista is an ongoing project — a performance in creation that began in 2025 through participation in the Rote Fabrik performing platform Incubator.

A documentary performance that explores the relationship between the female body and wood. Inspired by the wooden sculptures of the exiled Latvian sculptor Miķelis Pankoks, a nude model on stage engages with wooden objects, allowing the wood itself to speak of trauma. This encounter opens up the central question: what can (wooden) bodies tell us about memory, healing, and the search for rootedness?

Upcoming events: SHT Shorts 2025, 17–18 April, Schlachthaus Theater, Bern 

The project was supported with ideation funding from Migros Culture Percentage
