Netti Nüganen, Pire Sova & KISLING „Ash, horizon, riding a house“29 + 30.08 @ Kanuti Gildi SAAL
(eng below)
Maailmas, kus keel, folkloor ning maa on muutunud kaubaks, oled tõeliselt tagasi oodatud vaid õue - mis ei seostu enam eelkõige rohelusega. Maastikud on kasumlikuks osutunud trikiastmed, kõverpeeglid ja ebatasased põrandalauad.
Sellele reageerides avavad Nüganen, Kisling ja Sova omaenda jäätootmisbüroo. Õudusunenägude ning pideva tilkumise taustal reisivad nad läbi lokaalsuse mitmete perspektiivide, abiks CDJ-d ja bandžo. Maa mastaabiga võrreldes on nad vaid tolmukübemed, geoloogilise aja kõrval justkui spiidis.
Nad kujutlevad end kohalikena paikades, kus domineeriva kultuuri mõjul on importkaubad saanud osaks folkloorist, ent kus sõna “kohalik” tõstab sellegipoolest turistide valikute väärtust. "Ash, horizon, riding a house" on ahelreaktsioonide rännak, mis otsib kuuluvust, mida siit ei paista. Seda tuleb ette kujutada.

Netti Nüganen (she/her/doomer) on etenduskunstnik ja koreograaf. Ta loob performatiivseid hetki, mõeldes sellele, mis on kaalul ja milliseid vaatamise vorme on vaja. Leides inspiratsiooni vasturääkivustest ning ideede paljususest, tegeleb Nüganen maailma loomisega, mis alistub kaasajale kohasele konfliktsusele ning absurdile. Heites pilgu minevikku püüab ta luua sidususe tunnetust, mille abil olevikku mõtestada ning omakorda võimaldada perspektiiv tulevikku. Tema töid on esitatud festivalidel nagu My Wild Flag, ImPulsTanz, Batard, SAAL Biennaal, Pre-Urbaines, Lisbon Film Festival, Sequences Festival Reykjavik jm. Lisaks ka KIM? galeriis, Lewisham Art Gallerys, Tartu Kunstimuuseumis jm. Aastast 2017 tuuritab ta Florentina Holzingeri lavastustega.
///
In a world where land, language and folklore have become commodities, the only place you're welcome back is outside - where greenery is no longer the primary reference. Instead, uneven floorboards, illusion mirrors and trickster steps form profitable landscapes.
Nüganen, Kisling and Sova, as a reaction, open up their ice-manufacturing enterprise - for these two nights only. In the backdrop of nightmares and constant dripping they navigate between multiple perspectives on locality, accompanied by CDJs and a banjo. At Earth magnitude they are specks of dust, and next to geological time as-if on speed.
They trace locality from places where the influence of one dominant culture has made imported goods part of folklore, while the word 'local' still adds value when making choices as a tourist. "Ash, horizon, riding a house" is a series of chain-reactions that invites the audience to envision a belonging - one that cannot be seen from here. It must be imagined.

Netti Nüganen (she/her/doomer) uses the performative moment to question what forms of spectatorship are needed and what’s at stake. Establishing connections with the past, Nüganen forms an intentional look upon the present, wishing to extend the perspective towards the future. Treating everything known with careful deconstruction, she reshapes storytelling – using this method to operate in the gaps between recognisable signs and language. Nüganen’s works have been shown a. o. at festivals such as My Wild Flag, Batard, Pre-Urbaines, Lisbon Film Festival and ImPulsTanz and at KIM? Contemporary Art Centre, Kanuti Gildi SAAL, Lewisham Art Gallery and TQW. Next to that, she has been touring since 2017 with Florentina Holzinger’s performances.
