Plot - Points
Everything begins with pathos, or affect. It is something that forces one to think. This hook -Plot-Point- the metaphorical narrative tendency is what the show explores through the works of 11 artists. The exhibition undertakes a Barthecian way of exploring the notion of identity and its ever-evolving status through the ecologies of migration, land, and power.
Where the practices on display are diverse in the use of materials and media, the underlying concerns are concurrent, at times even intersecting. This diversity allows for an amplified sensory experience of interacting with the works. The element of sound, and visual tactility enable a certain grace in interacting with the works.
The objects on display are born out of an innate desire. A desire subjected to a number of readings by each practitioner. It is in this process of readings that this said desire opens up a wide range of source material ultimately carrying the work as a ‘network of readings’. It is here that each of the physical works becomes a phantasmagoria of research.
What becomes of utmost relevance are the many parallels each artist draws to ‘objects’, ‘icons’, styles, and epochs. The nonchalance with which they begin to affect our reading of each work and the show by consequence is refreshingly engaging.
