Sunny Pfalzer
6pm performance  on opening night by Marshall Vincent

With I know what to do, Neun Kelche presents the first solo exhibition of Sunny Pfalzer. The exhibition unites a series of life-sized, soft Stretch Sculptures and the video work I know what to do, both deeply rooted in Sunny's performative practice. The basis of the works is a  choreographic research into gestures from music videos of the Country/ Schlager culture. How butchy is the Schlager singer Andreas Gabalier? What happens when we mimic his gestures? The research becomes a metaphor for a feeling: a teenager poses in front of a mirror, appropriating gestures in order to find a solid material extension of themselves. The performative movement repertoire of the video transfers into the sculptures, which depict snapshots of moving bodies and become life-sized cushions.

Sunny Pfalzer works with performance, language and poetry, textile and movement. Sunny is a Surfer Boy and Go-Go-Girl. Whether in the exhibition space or on stage, Sunny's practice is always bodily and felt. Fundamental to Sunny are questions about collaborative work processes and friendship. At the opening, R'n'B musician Marshall Vincent performs, who also produced the soundtrack of the video.
