Petra Kapš / x-op residency

Dear reader, here are some thoughts, memories and photos, that came out of my one month residency stay at Moks in November 2009 …
One of the deepest traces in my memory are connected with silence that I had the pleasure of listening to when smoking a cigarette outside, staring through the window, taking long walks [...]

Kaspar & Susanne (July/August 2009)

Dear all…
A little late but life jumped back into the fast lane once we got back to Germany. Mooste seems a million miles away now. Which is sad.
Between the 15th of July and the 31st of August we spent a six week MOKS residency in Mooste, creating a body of work to address themes that [...]

MoKS residency September 2009

From many options this year we took the residency at MoKS(Mooste), Estonia,and we chose the best place to rest, to meet very interesting people and to think about our future creative activities.
MoKS center at Mooste is only 43 km (40 min by bus) from Tartu- the very important Estonian cultural centre with an excellent [...]

from kanako sasaki

Hello,
I was the resident for Moks this September. Well, I’ll leave on Monday already, but it has been a great experience for me to meet the local people and learn about the countryside life style in Estonia.
I will have few photo shoots to go.
It feels like the real autumn has arrived.
Anyway,
I have some blog entries [...]

I stayed in Mooste during march and april of 2009.
The delay of my report documents quite well how life again has a stranglehold over me with its daily routines and social life. I can’t reflect this without taking in account my time in Mooste where the only compelling structure of the day was to solve [...]

From the diary of the journey to Estonia

Tallinn, last day in Estonia: I bought herring as souvenir. Perhaps, now that I think of what I did, I should have bought postcards instead. What if it doesn’t get home eatable? In that case I will also take two CDs of Arvo Part´s music: To Alina and Tabula Rasa and a few chocolates. Regarding [...]

watching.
I listen. I needed to know more about being.
When I was young my Mother bought me a portable cassette player. I played tapes in the garden. Once I pressed ‘record’ instead of ‘play’ and found that I had the [...]

Impressions and other thoughts

One of the most important things I realize, deeply within me, is that Time passes by in a non-linear way. Time accuracy depends not in facts but to the relation with thought (act of reason and act of emotion).

eamon’s rambling

Where to begin. I have to say that writing this from a slight distance (one and a half months and back on the other side of the world), the most overwhelming feeling I have is of having left so many things undone. Not that I feel I did not do enough during [...]

Two months in Mooste have left time as a plastic thing. It’s collapsed and expanded simultaneously. I don’t know how long I was actually there. My memory vacillates. By a clock of friends, I think I was there a year. But with all the things still left to do, do again in Mooste, it [...]
