Myrto Xanthopoulou (visual arts SNF ARTWORKS Fellow 2020) launched her project 100KARATEBLOWS on Kickaster.
“100KARATEBLOWS is a series of short video works, an audio visual collage of gestures, gazes and words, filmed with a mobile phone and presented as Instagram stories. It began as an experiment, an attempt to explore and communicate aspects of my practice. It has gradually become an art research project of its own merit, which is important to me for a number of reasons: it creates a video archive, confirming ideas that are at the core of my practice, materiality, fragility, mundanity, the struggle to articulate, the labor that is inarticulate. At the same time, it is a hybrid form that challenges and renegotiates these ideas, embracing new possibilities, gestural, vocal, focal, performative. Through this campaign, I’d like to invite the community to become part of my exploration, by supporting my project. My wish is to be able to create another hundred of 100KARATEBLOWS until May.”
