Activation Vestir el viento (Performance)

, Kunsthalle Münster

Kunsthalle Münster provides the setting for the immersive installation Vestir el viento (2025), which means “clothing the wind”, by Rosa Tharrats. It is a play with the elements that has turned the exhibition space—with all its own specific qualities—into a site of experience, inviting us to rethink our relationship with the world and to recognize the inherent value of each element as a constant reminder of the cycles of life. The initial concept of the installation was developed during Tharrats’ voyage on an expedition ship to the South Sandwich Islands. Most of the flags on display were created in direct contact with nature, in collaboration with the wind; now we find them at the Kunsthalle mounted tautly or suspended loosely from the ceiling, surrendering to gravity. During the expedition, it was the wind that set the textile sculptures in motion. It was breathing life into them and turning them into a body resonating with its own activity. In the context of the exhibition’s opening, it is a group of performers that will collectively activate the insallation. The fabric created will be animated by sounds as well as breathing exercises borrowed from yoga.
