Lou and Cam met on a date a few hours after C first landed in Amsterdam. That was in the sunniest summer the city had ever seen and Lou had just graduated art school, Cam was about to start. Now, they are housemates and while their individual practices differ — L is 2D, C is 3D — they meet in their use of language. They’re both autobiographical maximalists, and with writing, try to make sense of the world. Their experimental performance format together is a hybrid between a reading, a drum-poem, a theater play and its rehearsal.
Lou Vives (b.1999) works through writing, performance, and drawings. He explores the intersection of memory, pop culture, and authorship. They have presented work in places such as; Perdu, Garage Noord (Amsterdam); La Casa Encendida, Matadero (Madrid); Fundació Miró (Barcelona); ICA London; and Galeria Zé dos Bois (Lisbon).
Cameron Lynch is an artist and writer from Dublin whose work is routinely interested in lapses. If a lapse occurs as a result of her work, she is satisfied. Some attempts are made materially through alterations/customisations to her own or other’s object horizon, some are made through non-narrative, multistage performance, and some again through the medium of the novella. She is part of the performance collective Autism Controller with German artist Inka Hilsenbek, and is the founder and editor of New Irish Press, a container for commissioned art writing.
