Trag / Trace / Spur is an ongoing multimedia project, started in 2012 at the Zagreb Museum for Contemporary Art by Croatian dancer Zrinka Šimičić Mihanović, Swiss animation artist Michaela Müller and New York based sound artist Fa Ventilato.
Three artists meet in a performance space and shape it each with their media: projections, sound, movement and visual material are mutually driving each other. In an interactive play they process the sensory input from the other performers through their own medium, thus creating inspirations for their collaborators.
In Up The Stairs, Behind Doors, Out The Window, Müller, Šimičić Mihanović and Ventilato take their vision one step further. They expand on the interdisciplinary aspect of the performance by involving guest artists with different backgrounds – a VJ artist, musicians, and an opera director. They, in turn, open new horizons for the trio, adding their own artistic expression to the multimedia spectacle.
