The group is led by the idea of independent creativity and of crossing the borders of any kind, from the objective limitations of production to the inner borders of every art field and finally to the most intimate limits of artist's personal creative approach. In the inspiring landscape of vineyards in the northern part of Slovenian seaside, Goriška Brda, they have inhabited a ruined renaissance castle Vipolže where they plan to stay for one month and present their work on the 28th of August 2009 at 9 p.m.
The group has been interested in the idea of the threshold, the borderline that finally constitutes itself as a fold. The border is always active, provocative in its structure as it constantly calls to step over it. But this step never actually occurs since the border is in constant movement, changing its position and thereby creating always new fields of possibility. Therefore the very action of stepping over the threshold is actually missed. They believe creative work is a constant process, endlessly following its own changeable virtual limits, constantly searching for the minimal difference in the movement of repetition of its praxis, thereby developing the point where its immanent excess folds back into the black hole of its deficiency. For the residential work they decided to proceed in the site specific way. This kind of approach offers them new spaces and a wide range of opportunities for creation, from the space itself to be explored in its concrete reality – its architecture, its atmosphere, its visuality, offering specific sets of performing, visual installations, light and sound design, to the layers it hides in its virtual reality – its history, its former inhabitants, the imaginary, the architectural principles that were followed by its construction and other inputs that will serve them to find the content and the focus of their residential work.
