SPACE FOR BECOMING A TIGER by Andrea Éva Győri


In the framework of An exhibition with an audio script by Sarah Demeuse and Wendy Tronrud, as well as a soundtrack by Mario García Torres in collaboration with Sol Oosel, artist Andrea Éva Győri develops a new video work and a performative intervention to take place during Museumnight on March 2.

Invited to respond to the exhibition’s core theme –the phenomenon of dropping out–, Győri asks “How can we create a space to learn how to be nimble? A space to learn to stop? A space for being proud? A space for escape? A space for becoming a tiger?”

On Museumnight, the artist invites the audience to join her in a ritual evoking the tiger, a symbol of strength and wildness, danger and beauty.

In her work, Andrea Éva Győri creates an intimate universe where the body is a meaningful agent of emotional and sensual expression. Through drawings, videos, and sculptures she explores questions surrounding sexuality, independence, pleasure, and healing.
