Site specific and comissioned projects<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Lately I have been enjoying to create site specific work, delving into examination of a specific space. I develop performances, workshops, and contemporary circus in public spaces \u2013 based on research material that I obtain by historical and socio-cultural research, by structural and aesthetic inspiration.<\/p>\n

Selected site specific work<\/h3>\n

FernNah - Performance in a tree with music by phyla<\/h3>\n
\n\t

<\/a>An homage to Marguerite Pore\u0300te - a radical anarchist beguine in the 13th century - we perform aerial dance and new music in an interpretation of her \"The mirror of the simple souls\":
\nA dialogue between soul, reason, love, morality, and other beings.<\/p>\n

Aerial artist meets musicians - every body situated in exchange, in music, in physicality. We try to draw an image of an energetic life, of a life that was radically rooted, and yet free.
\nWe disect her thoughts into fragments. We weave text, sound, and voice fragments into minimal music - many-voiced dialogical texture.<\/p>\n

A tree in the center - a path. Within voices, sound, aerial dance.
\nAerial artist meets musicians - every body situated in exchange, in music, in physicality. An attempt to draw a moving image of a radically life, de- eply rooted and yet free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

The beginning of FernNah was a random stumble: In Jihlava, Czech Republic, we encountered the ancient beech behind the church of St. Jacob's. Immediately we were under its spell. A story appeared...
\n2016 the city of Eberswalde commissioned us to create a performance for their official celebrations of Luther's Reformation. A very ambivalent assignment, because we were (and are) quite dismissive of Luther - not least for feminist reasons...
\nSo we went on a quest to find liberating aspects of the Reformation - and pronounced Marguerite Pore\u0300te as one of its trailblazers - against authority, against hierarchy, against (male) domination.<\/p>\n

The premiere was in October 2017 - in Luther's Oak in Eberswalde.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

phyla<\/h3>\n

Jennie Zimmermann and Gisbert Sch\u00fcrig<\/p>\n

phyla combine minimal music and improvisation to create soundscapes of poetic fragility and archaic impact - woven of voices between barely audible breaths, thunderous throat singing, and electronic sounds. Silence and gradual evolvement of sounds create a moment of infinity.

Site specific touring<\/h3>\n

We created this for Eberswalde, but have performed in other notable trees as well. We are happy to explore your particular (landmark) tree. Set up and rehearsals will take three full days on site.

The Mirror of Simple Souls<\/h3>\n
\n\t

LOVE: This soul - says LOVE - is free, and yet more free, and yet very free, and yet supremely free, in root and stems and every branch, and in every fruit of her branches.
\n<\/em>REASON: O God, o God, o God! - says REASON - what does this creature say? This is utter bewilderment!
\n<\/em>SOUL: That is right and proper - says this SOUL.
