THE 6TH ELEMENT - international women artists project

The conceptual borders of the project are marked by somewhat mythologized
assertion, that has been empirically tested countless times, about the
presence of the '6th element' or power. Being compared to the five senses
of perception it is most often associated with an intuition,
incomprehensible ability to conceive interrelation of things and is usually
attested to women. 
The project "The 6th Element" is an attempt to materialise the sixth sense,
to mark the women's self-sufficient space, avoiding at the same time the
feministic discourse, reproachfully aggressive intonation and iconography
of images manifesting the feminism. 
It is an attempt to simply attest to its power and self-sufficient capacity
that allows calmly and easily, or boldly and defiantly to settle anything.
This is not a call to bring forth the painful aspects of the feminine being
and to search for answers to eternal and unanswerable questions. Rather it
might be a provocation of a person to whom everything is long since clear
and who can affirm that in reality everything is much more simple.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A venue of the project will be in the hotel "NAMS99" in Riga, Latvia, where
each artist will have a separate room. Artists will involve in their
projects also actresses, fashion designers, radio dj's, etc. 
The project will take place in May 10, 2002 from 18.00-24.00 CET

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Live transmission in internet will be provided by RIXC women radio project
"Spidola" with the support of ISP "APOLLO"

RADIO SPIDOLA <http://rixc.lv/spidola> 
Spidola is the mastermind of Latvian supermen Lachplesis of the Latvian
folk-epos. In the play, written in the early twentieth century by famous
Latvian philosopher Rainis, Spidola has become the symbol of that
contrariety power, which is appropriate to women, and which in all times
has been motivated the fight of the warrior. That fight, which doesn't ends
with the win or loss, but is guided towards the upgrowth of the hero himself.
