The Observatory: Art and Life in the Critical Zone
23 September 2023 — 5 January 2024
Södertälje Konsthall, Södertälje, Sweden
Curator: Maria Lind
“The Observatory: Art and Life in the Critical Zone” revolves around the intricate relationships among humans, animals, plants, earth material, and other forms of life. The exhibition brings together a collection of new and existing artworks by twenty-six artists who, in diverse ways, actively engage with the multifaceted elements present in the “critical zone.” These elements encompass a wide range, spanning from earthworms and oil birds to imagined beach creatures and resilient potatoes, from indigenous landscapes and micro-territories to rainwater and archives of rural-based alternative communities across. The artists have employed painting, drawing, video, sculpture, performance, workshops, agriculture, and other means of expression, which will co-exist in a dynamic display at Södertälje konsthall.
I will present a few works from my new project “Assemblage”.
