Our world is ever-accelerating – our bodies are not.
Our world is ever accelerating – our bodies are not.
I explore the relationship between the human body and the rapidly evolving world around us, examining the frictions that arise from this disparity.
In my curatorial practice, I strive to platform dialogues that take the form of conversational or sensorial exchanges. I work with artists whose practices foreground material, spatial and non-human agents as equal interlocutors. I am interested in what forms of knowledge emerge when these agencies are taken seriously, and how such perspectives unsettle established modes of relating.
Experimental publishing adds to this approach by expanding the exhibition’s spatial and temporal boundaries and enabling it to circulate as a living, discursive platform.
Ultimately, my practice is a call for slowness, fragility, and playfulness, an intentional counterpoint to the relentless pace of the modern world.
