THE SHORT:
The group exhibition TO MOVE THROUGH showcases your artistic practice as a "vision of the future". While we wait for the people in charge, we act now. This is shown in your work by the way you move through public space. Your existence and practice have a social-political charge.
The featured artwork interprets materiality, the body, safety, language and the mundane as a way to interrogate the accepted range of movement, expression and way of being in public space. These works are a quasi-blue-print for the future that refutes current systems and hierarchical forms of “knowing”.
THE LONG:
The group exhibition TO MOVE THROUGH is a preparation for what's to come, an artists’ contingency, for the contemporary frictions of public spaces. The invited artists are living out their hypothetical solutions to social-political issues that are not yet widely actionable through their practice. A mirror into different ways of being, listening, thinking and feeling. These artists test the boundaries and the censorship of themselves and their practice, within the fences, suburban sprawl and oceans that make up ‘public space’.
The spatial, durational, digital, painted, photographic, and experimental works of the artists present an offering of personal, cultural, and political ontologies. The framework of TO MOVE THROUGH gives equal credence to the informal and impulsive as to the ‘academic’ and ‘technical’. The gallery as a public space provides a coming together of ideas, processes, and outcomes as individuals expand on their primary practice as an impromptu collective.
In a step away from public artworks of the past and their promise of the absolute, monument and permanence, this exhibition underscores pliability in opposition to existing “immovable” structures. These artists’ work speculates the future’s relationship to architecture, ecology, society and place. Tempor
ality, the melancholic and the collective are used as care methods and actions without imposing social pressures, authority and bureaucracy.
The feature artwork interprets materiality, the body, safety, language and the mundane as a way to interrogate the accepted range of movement, expression and way of being in public space. These works are a quasi-blue-print for the future that refutes current systems and hierarchical forms of “knowing”.
