Her work shifts between performance, drawing and sculpture, starting from still reflections on a sculptural image and diverse material processes from carving, casting, dyeing of fabric and making furniture, to the re-working of seminal performances in art history. She further works as a freelance art technician for various institutions in the UK and abroad. Currently Martina is developing the project ‘Building Home’, an investigation into cooperative living spaces in cities. ︎︎︎&nbsp;Email ︎︎︎&nbsp;Instagram EXHIBITIONS&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; WORKS &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;CV/CONTACT https://martinaschmuecker.com/Pinned-Categories Sun, 30 Oct 2022 15:29:22 +0000 Martina Schmuecker https://martinaschmuecker.com/Pinned-Categories EXHIBITIONS&nbsp; &nbsp;WORKS&nbsp; &nbsp;ABOUT https://martinaschmuecker.com/WORKS Mon, 29 Aug 2022 10:16:27 +0000 Martina Schmuecker https://martinaschmuecker.com/WORKS WORKS https://martinaschmuecker.com/Prints Sun, 23 Apr 2023 10:16:19 +0000 Martina Schmuecker https://martinaschmuecker.com/Prints Table and Chair &nbsp;1999 Pine wood, paint approx. 400cm x 60cm x 40cm and 400cm x 35cm x 40cm&nbsp; Table and Chair was made by taking out and replacing the legs of a set of childrens furniture, a small table and a chair, with carved long extensions.&nbsp; BACK TO WORKS &gt; https://martinaschmuecker.com/Collages Sun, 23 Apr 2023 10:16:48 +0000 Martina Schmuecker https://martinaschmuecker.com/Collages Table and Chair &nbsp;1999 Pine wood, paint approx. 400cm x 60cm x 40cm and 400cm x 35cm x 40cm&nbsp; Table and Chair was made by taking out and replacing the legs of a set of childrens furniture, a small table and a chair, with carved long extensions. &nbsp; BACK TO WORKS &gt; BACK TO WORKS&gt; https://martinaschmuecker.com/Feedback-Room Mon, 29 Aug 2022 10:16:27 +0000 Martina Schmuecker https://martinaschmuecker.com/Feedback-Room Feedback Room Installation and Audio play Exhibition during a Residency at the Irish Museum of Art, 2010 The audio play Feedback Room was staged in the Process Room on the hour every hour during regular opening hours at IMMA Voices: Gina Moxley and Marty Rea Technical support: David Lacey Set: Joe Stanley, IMMA The play Feedback Room is staged as an audio play in a built theatre set. It is written as a conversation between two people who may or may not have spent the night together. Each character suggests a memory to the other of previous events, their conversation unravels into an argument and memories of events become confused and unreal. The work is inspired by the television play Nacht und Träume (Night and Dreams) written and directed by Samuel Beckett. It was written in English for Süddeutscher Rundfunk and recorded for Television in October 1982. The word ‘feedback’ describes a communicative situation as well as a technical event. Feedback as sound or image changes the former situation: giving feedback as assurance or critique, enables the person getting it to reassess a position or point of view. Feeding back sound or an image through a microphone or a camera is instant, changing the amplified sound or distorting the filmed image.

Morris) 2018 with Robert Luzar Commissioned by Beaconsfield, filmed performance for ‘In whose Eyes' 2018 at Beaconsfield Gallery, London Originally commissioned by Beaconsfield 2018 for the exhibition ‘In Whose Eyes?’, this work is an adaptation of the performance piece Site by Robert Morris. In the original, Morris ‘dances’ with an 8 x 4 ft. sheet described as plywood, while Carolee Schneemann sits naked on a white bench (in the pose of Manet’s Olympia). A four page long choreography script of this performance describes the movements in detail. I asked the artist Robert Luzar to work with me on this idea, and we subsequently developed the current version of this performance together. In my adaptation of this script by Morris, the roles of the performers are swapped: here, ‘Robert’ sits on the bench – with clothes on, in no particular pose – while I follow the choreography of the original piece performed by Robert Morris.&nbsp; ︎︎︎ OAR Publication EXHIBITIONS 2018 In Whose Eyes?
