]]> http://www.carmina-slovenica.si/en/fhksjdfh_/djkfavk_/ Alone in Its Uniqueness is a sound installation miniature—an allegory symbolizing the inner disunity of the human being, the inadequacy of social categories, and the anxious search for transcendence beyond ordinary experience. Conceived as an immersive sonic event for a solitary visitor, it invites—perhaps even compels—reflection on personal identity, societal norms, and the absurdity of the rational world. How might we imagine a different society, a different form of community—a new kind of solidarity among unique hybrids?

Groups of objects organized thematically and taxonomically follow the principle of a wunderkammer. Cabinets of curiosities originated in Renaissance Europe when private collectors began gathering exotic, marvellous, fantastic, or unusual objects during travels, scientific experiments and research, or through other means. By organizing and displaying the artifacts, they aimed to rationalize and categorize a vast amount of information. The Sheep Museum tells history through objects. It seeks to address diverse human experiences and narrate entire social environments through simple items from everyday life, complex ideological constructs, or great works of art – employing the principle of the part(s) for the whole and the whole for the part(s).The objects and ideas representing the history of the world revive things that man have made from sheep, awakening their meaning, which often exceeds the original intention of the maker. The exhibits bear witness to the journey of humans and sheep through centuries and millennia: some carefully crafted, admired, preserved others worn and discarded; some reliable, others speculative. All equally important, all interconnected. The Sheep Museum is an exhibition about the interaction between humans and sheep and the ethical-political consequences of this relationship, from dressing in fur to the development of global industry, starting with wool production. By deciphering the messages that objects convey through time, the exhibition speaks of people and places, of moments in history and our time, of how we think and act. Its purpose is to acquaint visitors with the history, ecology, and global dynamics of obtaining and producing sheep products, to show the connection between animals and humans, and thus enable a broader understanding of how objects and ideas work within the entire ecosystem.   Author: Karmina Šilec assistant: Marisa Filipčič thanks to: Lyngheisenteret på Lygra i Nordhordland, Seim, Hetland (MUHO) (NO), MIKRO+POLO, d. o. o., Jure Miloš (BA), Zoran Stamenov (RS), Kmetijska zadruga Loznati (HR), Estancia San Gregorio (CL), Muzej ovčarstva Lubenice Cres (HR), Narodni dom Maribor, Ullvarefabrikk, Hjelmas (NO), Gostilna Bukaleta (HR), Udruga Pramenka (HR), Mkhululi Matyalana Ka Mabija (SA), Elisabeth Halvorsen (NO), Tannery Poland (PL), Nikola Mico Velčič (HR), Mat Muntz (ZDA), Mesnica Prus, Alenka Žavbi Kunaver, Andrej Kobal, Janez Jamnik, Janez Jocif, Soven, Dr. Angela Cividini, Alenka Fortič, Andreja Krleža, Kmetija Kekec, Bojan Jagodič, Branko Zorec, Dejan Novak, Dušan Jejčič, Irena Brišar, Irena Krempl, Irena Šober Jagodič, Ivan Košutar, Jaka Oset, Karin Sajko, Majda Korotančnik, Njec Valenti, Marisa Filipčič, Marjetka Temet, Društvo Pekinpah, Mojca Redjko, Renata Jecl, Simona Joras, Tamara Filipčič, Vera Novak, Vesna Gorjup, Vesna Novitović, Zdenka Cimerman, Nika Hozjan, Zlatko Breznik, Zvezdana Sajko, Zvonko Drevenšek, Tomaž Filipčič, Zvonko Miklavc, Žana Klobučar, Enisa Dorić and members of project choir Choregie   Production: Carmina Slovenica, 2024 in cooperation with:The Minoriti Cultural Quarter, Maribor Puppet Theatre, Newmusic-theatre Choregie ]]> Wed, 02 Oct 2024 17:33:40 +0200 BORING SHEEP THAT HAVE BEEN CHANGING THE WORLD http://www.carmina-slovenica.si/en/fhksjdfh_/hjalsdh_/ 25 % sound and music

Pastoral is not a story about what the sheep did for us, it is a necrography – a history of deaths and ultra-violence taking place over decades, centuries. This violence is not a thing of the past, it is an ongoing act. Human victories over primitive and stupidsheep act as an extension of events, a timeless, almost eternal repetition and escalation of violence against animals. Their remains demonstrate our (un)awareness and animal (un)worthiness.

Ovce so bistvene v človeški zgodbi.

Med živalmi je ovca najmočneje vplivala na življenje ljudi. Ključna v človekovi zgodovini nas ta izjemna žival hrani, zdravi, oblači, nam pomaga do blaginje in bede, graditi imperije in pustošiti krajine, urejati dom in odkrivati nove kontinente, graditi mesta in ustvarjati umetnine.

Ovce niso le rejne živali, ki čakajo, da postanejo ovčetina.
