STUDIO NAZARENKO

For me, the studio is both a microscopic and macroscopic approach to the world flow. In my studio, I check a complicated and combinatory relationship between art and life by organizing events — between public and private realms — between collective energy and individual reflection in dance cyphers, also solitude and solidarity. KARTELL is the name I gave to my studio practice and it has to be explored and experienced at once. It extends beyond four walls: it can be the streets, airports, or any space shaped by group dynamics. In these environments, experimentation feels more natural and liberated than within academic or institutional settings. Here, all forms of knowledge are welcome. KARTELL is nomadic. KARTELL embodies a culture of openness and hospitality.
