Flávia
Müller Medeiros
Temporary studio at the ICA
ICA, The Mall, 13-17 June 2005
Commenting on notions of commission, affect and representation, Flávia
Müller Medeiros will respond to the role of the contemporary art
institution as a place that ‘encourages and nurtures artistic production’.
Flávia has take on an ‘interactive residency’ in the context of
I.D.E.A.London, setting up a small studio area inside the ICA. She is
committed to produce at least one artwork a day, influenced by the ICA
environment. Any interaction, conflict and negotiation between Flávia and
the ICA staff, visitors, and the I.D.E.A.London curators will be embraced.
The work to be produced is unknown until it begins being made in the ICA.
It may be displayed at the studio area or shown to those interested. After
the project a small booklet documenting the work will be created.
An edited version of
Failed, Emerging and Young,
will also be shown on regular intervals on a plasma screen at the
café area of the ICA.
Born in Brazil, Flávia completed her Associate Research Fine Art program
at Goldsmiths College in 2004, where she also graduated the year
previously with an MA in Fine. Between 1999 and 2002 Flávia lived in
America where she received major art commissions to produce and present
her artwork. Based in London since 2002, Flávia has participated in group
exhibitions at Jeffrey Charles Gallery, Arch Gallery, Nth Art, and fa
Projects Gallery. As part of her work, she has curated Examining My Own
Practice, a group exhibition that included collaborations with Emma
Kay, Jemima Stheli and four other artists concerned with performativity.
Flávia also utilizes video to make her work, her project Failed,
Emerging and Young is an ongoing compilation of interviews with
established and emerging curators/artist-curators including Lisa Le Feuvre,
Gavin Wade and Nicolas Bourriaud. The work is a subtle re-appropriation of
the didactic language and the languages of documentary and interview, to
subvert the art world language and the ideas of the market and art.

Cake

Negotiation with the ICA cook
whether it was viable for me to bake a cake at the ICA kitchen at 5pm
o’clock, right after I had the idea. It was not possible as I was not
dressed properly regarding safety regulations. Although the cook could
provide the proper jacket, I had to be wearing leather shoes and a
baseball hat.
