Rune Bosse, Artist
If i was a plant, sprouting between the forest and the beach,
Then i would grow,
become interested in growing.
Later in life through being moved and moving,
collect nourishment from different soils and places,
play with, and on, the different grounds.
I often would find myself confused and not sure of where i was going,
Then locating the starting point or origin,
would make it possible to create a line
and see a connection,
it would give me direction knowing the nature of things.

Rosanna Lovell
Practice Room 1.1. Is a work in process, an exploration into the musicians practice room, a place of preperation, solitude, concentration. What does this small room offer as a physical and mental space ? Through exploring my own practice as a clarinettist and the experiences of other musicians, as well as sharing knowledge, experiences and processes with those at the school, we will think about if the practice room can become a universal space, and if so, what are it’s requirements ? Others at the school are invited to enter the space, or come for a clarinet ‘non-lesson’… (Developed by Rosanna Lovell, B.Mus and currently studying at the Institute for Art in Context, UdK, Berlin.)
