“Ida Sophia’s installation and durational performance Patience and Penitentia explores the painful and damaging experience of relational withdrawal – the silent treatment – in a work that enacts the power dynamics, strategies of control and form of punishment at its core. This work by Berlin-based South Australian artist expands on her earlier interest in performance and the exploration of extreme psychological states and limits of endurance. Over the span of the exhibition a participatory ritual performed by the artist and a select number of performers will see Sophia incorporate elements of sound, language, movement and gesture to publicly transfigure private suffering through collective release.” Words: Samstag Museum of Art
