SERDE Istabas
Aizpute, Latvia (2017)


SERDE Istabas

Text-movement performance which responds to the beautiful spaces of SERDE house. Made in collaboration with SERDE residents Emma Wood (UK/Germany), Kati Hyyppä (Finland/Germany), and Patrycja Plich (Poland).

Entry Room
Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek

Mid-century delusion of technology
the portal of happiness.
Hinges allow for in and out, up and down.
Hefty doors swing.
Peeling paint flakes.
The pressure is unrelenting.
What will pass through the threshold?


Picture
Kitchen
Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek

Shiny concrete, rotting left behinds
Wooden utensils standing in basket.
Clanking metal spoon
Muesli, kefirs, milk.
Morning smell of coffee
Fills the empty.

Back Stairs
Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek

Spent grains smolder on the stoop,
Worn planks fermenting memories.
Forgotten bits seen in wooden eyes,
Knots where branches grew.

Great Room
Patrycja Plich

I’m passing the space step by step
I carry the balance in me.
Sometimes in between.

Laundry Room
Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek

Functional is the centerpiece of articulation.
It remains an unfinished effort
Only to be ignored.


Picture
Upstairs Nook
Kati Hyyppä

Temporary solutions
Waiting to be fixed
Or not.
Missing door handles
Tiny chair I didn’t notice before.

Picture
Workshop
Emma Wood

Entering the cave
Surrounded by the chaos
I find my refuge.

Distillery
Joséphine A. Garibaldi and Paul Zmolek

Patiently dripping, distilled in time.
The mouse at the fountain silences a squeak.
Tin, tin, tin -  he dares not speak.
