International Street & Open Air Festival FETA Performance

International Street & Open Air Festival FETA is one of the biggest of its kind in Central - Eastern Europe. This year's FETA was held on 14th - 17th August 2003 in Gdansk, Poland. Sabanci University VACD instructor Wieslaw Zaremba had choosen 5 students (Deniz Gül, Hayal Pozantı, Orçun Gögüs, Deniz Erk, Ege Kanar) and a ballet (Gizem Tokgoz) for creating an interdisciplinary art performance. During the performance students from the drawing studio had painted a drawing on a 2.5 x 20 meters canvas with the participation of a professional dancer who had combined classic ballet and modern dance accompanied by the laptop performance of the sound designer Selcuk Artut (Replikas). The process of drawing was conducted both by the students and the dancer. The students had the opportunity to ask the dancer to stand/perform in a certain fashion while the opposite had also taken place: the dancer had changed her position on her own according to the way he drawing was progressing. With the participation of the Sabanci University VACD instructor Selcuk Artut in developng a sound space, the event had gained further distinctive identity in the festival. The sound space was generated live with an amplified stetescope attached to the body of the ballet in order to capture the heartbeat sounds of the ballet during the performance. In this manner the process had bordered on a different sort of art which combined theater, sound and drawing
