Getaway #36: Kira van Eijsden

Kira van Eijsden chose this Sunday’s getaway destination. The 36th Outside Sunday was part of the festival “WE WALK”, at Das marsie – Raum für kollektive Kunst, Elisabethenstrasse 26
8004 Zürich (Kalkbreite/Bhf.Wiedikon: Tram 2,3,  Bus 32)

[Invitation]

– we both like hip hop
we both remain without understanding why art cannot be more fun
Kira is more angry at things like this than I am
I envy her for this anger

we both had a child recently
we both have degrees that don’t add to our salaries
Kira is more angry at things like this than I am
I envy her for this anger

when we spend time
most of the times the laughing wins over the anger

hip hop helps the laughing to win
frauenstreik helps
making animals from dough helps

Kira has the courage to start her thinking and doing from her very own life, body, experience
I always cling so some seemingly greater concept as a protection shield
while I’m waiting for this shield to melt slowly and steadily in her presence, some more about her:

she is full of ideas
she is generous on all levels
she likes berries and lentils and lemon juice
and lists –

[Report]

two of us love shoes
one of us would never put on the same sock for two days
three of us wish for more clarity
one of us is a single child
two of us think about quitting art
one of us likes to take apart computers and technic
two of us were into professional sport once
one of us is angry at the size of the velokeller (she knew from the beginnning it would be too small)
one or all of us are very angry at the amount of space that cars occupy

all of us watched a group of Black people / POC train walking for a fashion show

one of us has a hard time bragging
one is unable to give short answers but for a good reason
one once had a headache and got in and out of a man’s bed by chance
one has a face that tells her feelings no matter what
one did not become a wanderführerin

all of us were very happy about the snacks
some would have kept the silence, would have been more strict with the rules
two exhausted themselves on a backwards maneuver
one sung I ha no niä soviel pneu gseh
