Gabi Shillig. Raum(Zeit)Kleider project.

Collaboration of the dancer Noemí Viana.

Raum(Zeit)Kleider is a multi-faceted project and the further development of an ongoing investigation in geometrical organization and textile materiality, mapping social relations of and in space. The aim was to develop a spatial system that is open to changes and that can adapt to different functions and situations through the participation of its user. The garment itself becomes an interface between its users and the (built) environment, and participation becomes an important active instrument in controlling (public) space. The project merges insights from architecture, fashion design and body performance. The development and outcome of these hybrid, geometrical structures will occupy both the digital and the tactile, material realms, although the result is clearly a tactile structure that becomes a vehicle for a bodily experience, intended to be handled, worn, felt and played with. Individuals are required to participate, eliminating both the role of the spectator and that of the author – a passive spectator becomes an active participant.

Gabi Shillig. 1977. Studied Architecture at the University of Applied Sciences Coburg and completed her postgraduate studies in Conceptual Design (class of Professor Ben van Berkel) at the Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main in 2004. She worked for several architectural offices in Sydney, Berlin, Coburg and Frankfurt before establishing her own research and artistic practice in Berlin. Since October 2007 she has been teaching as artistic associate at the Institute for Transmedia Design (Class for Spatial Design) at the University of Arts in Berlin and has taught and lectured internationally. Gabi Schillig received numerous fellowships - amongst others, fellowships at Akademie Schloss Solitude, Stuttgart, Van Alen Institute, New York and the Nordic Artists’ Centre in Dalsåsen, Norway. Besides other own publications, Mediating Space. Soft Geometries – Textile Structures – Body Architecture, a monographic catalog on her recent work has been published by merz & solitude in 2009. She lives and works in Berlin.www.gabischillig.de
