M HKA gaat digitaal

Met M HKA Ensembles zetten we onze eerste échte stappen in het digitale landschap. Ons doel is met behulp van nieuwe media de kunstwerken nog beter te kaderen dan we tot nu toe hebben kunnen doen.

We geven momenteel prioriteit aan smartphones en tablets, m.a.w. de in-museum-ervaring. Maar we zijn evenzeer hard aan het werk aan een veelzijdige desktop-versie. Tot het zover is vind je hier deze tussenversie.

M HKA goes digital

Embracing the possibilities of new media, M HKA is making a particular effort to share its knowledge and give art the framework it deserves.

We are currently focusing on the experience in the museum with this application for smartphones and tablets. In the future this will also lead to a versatile desktop version, which is now still in its construction phase.

"I put on a linen smock, always the same. I measure the place with my body by lying down on the floor and by drawing a chalk line behind my head. I count with one or two witnesses the number of ORLAN-Body contained in this space. I write the report - I collect water - I take off my smock, I wash it in public - I take samples of this dirty water, samples that will be tagged, numbered, sealed with sealing wax. I present in galleries or in museums those samples, the reports, the pictures, the video tape, the commemorative plaque, the life-size effigy from the last pose, the smock, the ORLAN-Body unit stick..., that embody this work." - ORLAN

This presentation is not the documentation of what she has previously experienced – in the performances – but a continuation thereof. For ORLAN, art is an encounter, between herself and other people.
