Developed over nearly two decades, the work centres on the reuse of mattress springs as a means of investigating circularity, endurance, and care through physical labour and material experimentation. Originating in doctoral research at Dartington College of Arts and supported through development funding from Plymouth University, Matricycle has evolved across sculptural, architectural, and speculative formats. Current iterations combine workshop-based making, collaborative prototyping, and AI-assisted digital image exploration to test future applications. The project operates as an open, evolving system rather than a fixed outcome, foregrounding process, material logic, and collective enquiry. https://sharedhabitat.net/Matricycle Sat, 02 Jan 2021 12:35:40 +0000 Shared Habitat https://sharedhabitat.net/Matricycle © 2024.

Yet she questions the term authentic, with its implication of an essential or universal truth. In her doctoral research (Shared Habitats , PhD, 2007) she proposed the alternative term MoverWitness practice, to emphasise the relational field of this work: an evolving process in which moving and witnessing are reciprocal acts of perception, reflection, and imagination. <img width="604" height="529" width_o="604" height_o="529" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cf05604928dfd544a3f3e0a7d73aa9a8643a4f385929d3545b04b54200acf8b0/FOUR-MOVERS-08--Eila-Goldhahn-copy.jpg" data-mid="240542070" border="0" data-scale="51" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/604/i/cf05604928dfd544a3f3e0a7d73aa9a8643a4f385929d3545b04b54200acf8b0/FOUR-MOVERS-08--Eila-Goldhahn-copy.jpg" /> Within this practice, movement arises in response to inner impulse and environmental feedback, creating bridges between embodied perception and the wider ecological and social contexts in which we move. In workshops and performances, participants engage in forms of ecological attunement where gesture, stillness, and breath reveal the subtle interconnections of our shared habitats. https://sharedhabitat.net/Writing-Publications Tue, 11 Nov 2025 19:28:05 +0000 Shared Habitat https://sharedhabitat.net/Writing-Publications Writing &amp; Publications Writing is a generative space where movement and observation find language. Goldhahn’s German and English texts range from academic publications to reflective essays, interwoven with the embodied and ecological inquiries and images of her artistic practice. They bridge the personal and the academic, allowing somatic experience to speak alongside theory. Some of this work questions capitalist frameworks that commodify bodies, time, and environments, seeking instead reciprocal forms of value and attention. Writing traces how the digital-aesthetic and the physical-material converge within shared habitat, extending the creative process into language. CURRENT WRITING PROJECTS / RECENT PUBLICATIONS Anatomy of a Residency: Architecture, Artists and HabitatAnatomie einer Residenz: Architektur, Künstler und Kontext,(working title) Anatomy of a Residency / Anatomie einer Residenz: Architektur, Künstler und Kontext (working title) This bilingual English/German book investigates the Pfälzer Hof artist residency as an example of an artistic ecosystem — a space where architecture, intention, and community practices intersect. Combining documentary material with a literary approach, the project traces the residency’s origins and asks how artistic habitats shape the work and relationships that unfold within them.Situated within the town’s long-standing traditions of geological extraction and material knowledge, the book also examines how the site’s unique cultural landscape informs the residency’s character and the artistic exchanges it fosters. <img width="1153" height="1748" width_o="1153" height_o="1748" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cd30101b3c82580c74cbb7a5292ee2722824916388c2b2a42959c192af46d0e1/Pfalzer-Hof-paul-schneider-1952.jpg" data-mid="240628962" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cd30101b3c82580c74cbb7a5292ee2722824916388c2b2a42959c192af46d0e1/Pfalzer-Hof-paul-schneider-1952.jpg" /> The former owner/hotelier of Pfaelzer Hof, Paul Schneider, was an empassioned billiard player.Dieses Buchprojekt, zweisprachig in Deutsch und Englisch, folgt der Künstlerresidenz im Pfälzer Hof als einem Ort, an dem Architektur, künstlerische Intention und gemeinschaftliche Praxis aufeinander treffen und sich gegenseitig formen. Es erzählt von der Entstehung dieses Raums, von den Begegnungen, den Bewegungen und den kleinen Alltäglichkeiten, die hier Kunst und Leben miteinander verweben. Eingebettet in eine Landschaft, die geprägt ist von geologischer Geschichte, industrieller Vergangenheit und materieller Tradition, spürt das Buch dem nach, wie solche Orte Wahrnehmung, Denken und kreative Beziehungen lenken. Es fragt, wie Räume selbst zu Akteuren werden – wie sie Prozesse ermöglichen, Begegnungen einladen und künstlerisches Arbeiten in ihrer Vielschichtigkeit beeinflussen.

They offer both a practical and theoretical framework for exploring how the camera can extend the field of witnessing within movement practice.&nbsp;Selected films from the collection are also held by the Deutsche Tanzfilm Institut in Bremen. Goldhahn’s films include educational explorations of MoverWitness practice and artistic movement observations made with dancers and environments. In her research, she coined the term camera-witnessing (2007)—now used by other Authentic Movement scholars—to describe filming as an act of presence rather than neutral observation. This idea, expanded in my academic paper on camera-witnessing published during the COVID period, gained new relevance as questions of mediation, attention, and embodied relation became ever more pressing. <img width="960" height="540" width_o="960" height_o="540" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c0d8d71e301f1e76ae571f46f9ea64ee7cfe9cfb31f308a6cb9119c96e42e224/MoverWitnessDartington--Eila-Goldhahn-2022.jpg" data-mid="240546411" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/960/i/c0d8d71e301f1e76ae571f46f9ea64ee7cfe9cfb31f308a6cb9119c96e42e224/MoverWitnessDartington--Eila-Goldhahn-2022.jpg" /> Movers in a workshop with Eila in the Dance School at Dartington Hall Whether documenting somatic practice or creating poetic studies of movement in different habitats, Goldhahn’s films approach the lens as an active participant within shared habitat, tracing gestures of relation between body, image, and environment. https://sharedhabitat.net/Events-Workshops Tue, 11 Nov 2025 19:30:33 +0000 Shared Habitat https://sharedhabitat.net/Events-Workshops Current&nbsp; Events / Workshops Workshops, one-to-one work, and residencies form the lived dimension of Eila’s practice.

The sculptures are slender and fine and embody an almost immaterial quality of being and relating. There is an uneasy movement and inscription of space, as though their bodies make the air around them tremble, perhaps from being pierced. Tenuous tabletop-sized sculptures is made from papermache and formally explores movement and tension between two or three lines or abstracted figures. They are informed by observations of plants, animals and humans in relational, somatic, gestural interactions There is something vulnerable about these works as they allude to fragility and temporality, perhaps to an impending demise. Tenuous has been envisaged as models for life-size sculptures or utopian architectures. They compliment still points in installations of Goldhahn’s MoverWitness dance films.
