the 3rd colour // performance by josef ka // camera editing Konstantin Seliverstov//Body and Word festival SPb 2019
The 3rd colour is based upon Michael Matyushin (russian avant-garde artist from the 1st part of the 20th century)investigations of colours: the way they exist by themselves, the way they exist in collaboration to each other and the way they exist all together in collaboration with the creator, who represents the 3rd colour.
International performance, visual and sound artist Josef Ka’s blends richly varied influences – everything from Butoh dance to cinematic theory – with her decades of nomadic world travel to create bold, highly personal site-specific art.
Josef Ka’s themes range from investigating the place of the human body in contemporary reality to exploring the inner body as a representative system of our human and post human kind.
Her artistic practice often actively invites the audience inside a sort of private reverie, making it is a deeply participatory one; she actively engages with both her audiences and with a wide diversity of other experimental artists.
In addition to her own work, Josef Ka curates a regular series of events and exhibitions at her Helsinki underground space – Sauna Gallery – and teaches classes on the theory and practice of performance art. She is also the inventor of the WORST THEATRE and her yogic training system, KA-YOGA.
