methods for collapse
BLINDSIDE GALLERY, 29 JUNE - 16 JULY, 2022.Invested in visual liberation through counter-intuitive practices, methods for collapse (m4c) is a live performance score which will go through cycles of destructive processing techniques over the duration of the exhibition.
m4c is a resistance to our seemingly inherent desires for knowing, progress and order (aka holding the world captive). It is an attempt to parallel a queer desire for becoming unlocatable/illegible through the “collapse [of] all reference and reconcilability” *.
m4c is the beginning of inquiries into a performance language which dis-locates/dis-orients (-to never reorient). A language to scramble the ease between image and label; an attempt to generate a phenomenology of kin.
Open to the public with no unveiling or revealing, m4c unlocks the gallery from its usual function. Constantly in flux, the work enters un-made and opens to the public as a work-in-“progress”. The gallery is now a studio space, and the public are invited to witness the writing, development, de-development (deterioration), and final collapse of the score.
