Margret Wibmer

RECENT and UPCOMING

The video-work ‘material encounters’ is the result of an intense research through practice, a first time collaboration between visual artist Margret Wibmer and dancer/choreographer Miri Lee. It explores the relation between body, garment and space and the materiality of movement and imagination. It reveals the magic and intelligence of body and textiles through movement and touch. Materiality and space are explored through folding and unfolding, air and breath. The incredibly complex language that emerges through these encounters creates the ambiguity Margret Wibmer is frequently striving for in her work.
