HORSES IN ORBIT: Workshop by Laia Ventayol García & Cristina Moreno García

Workshop, 21.04.2023, (AdBK und Nürnberg Stadt)

’Horses in Orbit’ is a research on memory. It narrates the story of both artists, who met in Nürnberg in 2011, and entangles it with two historical characters who belonged to that city during different times: Kaspar Hauser, the lost child of Europe and possible hare of the Royal House in Baden, and Georg Hartmann, an important scientist and creator of astronomical and navigation instruments in the Medieval times. From these two characters, the artists recognize and develop new ideas around orientation, space, sense of being lost, reencounter, domestication and numbed sensitivity.
