Air
Music and Movement create a space in which four figures evolve in relation to each other. The interspaces are gradually compressed; trios, duos, solos arise from a situation of feeling constricted, being expressed by a struggle with the material. “Air” is a work in progress piece reflecting a search for a new MusicDanceTheatre.

Schwarz, Nina

During her studies of Art Master at Hochschule für Kunst und Gestaltung Luzern, she spent one year at Hochschule der Künste Berlin with Prof. K. Gonschior (Fine Arts and Painting). The time in Berlin had a profound impact on Nina’s work and set off her lasting relatedness to this city. With her Lucerne diploma in her hands, she started her advanced studies in Fine Arts and Painting with Prof. F. Badur at Universität der Künste Berlin. A scholarship of UdK Berlin enabled her to participate in the KlangKunstBühne Berlin art project and in the following, she attended summer academy several times. Concurrently, she was influenced by years of personal studies by Norma Bühler Lucero Luzern, Calixto Bieto Berlin/Barcelona, Prof. J.Vasiljev Berlin/St.Petersburg, Prof. J.Rasinski UdK Berlin, Prof. N.Sharp Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin, Eva Burghardt Berlin and some others.

Riza, Elma
Elma Riza is a French-Tunisian artist. She studied at the Beaux-Arts de Nantes (2005-2007), then continued her studies at the School of Fine Arts in Berlin to graduate with honors in 2012. She regularly presents her work at festivals and exhibitions.
She has had four solo exhibitions: Kunstverein Neukölln (2017), La Boîte _ Un lieu d’Art Contemporain Tunis (2018) Galerie Weisser Elefant (2020), STRouX Berlin (2023). She obtained for her video “When a Line goes for a Walk” the female voice award, during the Berlin Minute Festival in September 2022. And for a first fiction short film “Trois Femmes”, she has won two awards at the Bestlov Film Festival & Berlin Shorts Festival (2023).
Her work takes shape in different media such as video, performance, photography, installation and drawing. Her research revolves around the concept of landscape, from ecological, anthropological and poetic perspectives. She questions our relationship with the urban, everyday or so-called “natural/wild” landscape. To this end, she addresses the issue of the boundary that defines our spaces and the relationship between elements, between interior and exterior spaces, between the familiar and the foreign, between the real and the imaginary, between humans and the environment.
