To consider new models of presenting performance. Going head over heels by a wide range of various sources. There - suddenly she’s been seen for a brief moment. Thinking  about what is valuable and how value transfers from person to object and back. Looking for ways to exchange immaterial ideas and gestures. The use of borrowed elements (aspects or techniques) in the creation of a new piece. Sculptured form, content, endurance, whereas the process of thinking is equal to formation. At bottom it enables her to research differences between states of matter.

CMMC is an artist duo focused on performance. Somewhere between strongly intuitive and oddly constructed, their practice combines language and doubt. Often driven by questions on (expected) skill, CMMC works with duration, quickly alternating emotions and long recitations. Over the years their work evolved to more stylized conceptual responses to the invitations they receive; from a 6 hour a day massage for 4 days in a row in a museum; to trying to write a novella in three days on sugar and water in the exhibition; to declaring entangled trees on the premises of an institution, a performance of their making.

CMMC (Céline Mathieu and Myrthe Christianne van der Mark, 1989, BE and NL) performed in galleries and at art fairs internationally in Berlin (Berlin Art Week), Hamburg (P/ART), Manchester (Manchester Contemporary, Castlefield Gallery), Rotterdam (Wo Meine Sonne Scheint) and in Antwerp (M HKA, Kunsthal Extra City, Trampoline gallery), Leuven (Museum M), Ghent (Publiek Park, Vooruit, KIOSK), and Brussels (Poppositions). For their residency at AIR Berlin Alexanderplatz, they were supported by the Flemish Government. They had their first museum solo show in 2021 at IKOB Museum of Contemporary Art in Eupen.
