December 9, 2024/in Autumn 2024_#Enough, Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2024_#Open

Insomnolence: The Sociability of Sleep at Agora Hydro-Québec

June 26, 2024/in Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2024_#Open

How might exploring a sleeper subjectivity – the quotidian ways we navigate time, space, ourselves, and others – help us reimagine and reanimate the sociability of sleep itself?[1] This is the question at the heart of the exhibition Insomnolence: The Sociability of Sleep, curated by Marianne Cloutier, Aleksandra Kaminska, and Alanna Thain, held at the […]

Communities of concern, Dora García at M HKA Antwerp

December 11, 2023/in Reviews, Autumn 2023_#Cycles, Exhibition Reviews

It is rare that an exhibition of contemporary visual art is so vigorously conceived as a reading exercise.[1] In Dora García’s She Has Many Names (M HKA Antwerp), curated by Joanna Zielińska, books are everywhere. Not only are writers such as James Joyce, Julio Cortázar, or Albert Camus subjects of García’s work, but writing and […]

Documenta Fifteen and Berlin Biennale 12: A comparative review

December 9, 2022/in Reviews, Autumn 2022_#Materiality, Exhibition Reviews

The thematic contents of the Berlin Biennale 12 and documenta 15, which both took place in Summer 2022, are certainly close, ‘focusing on themes of colonialism and decolonization … art as an opportunity to repair’[1] even though ‘documenta fifteen is practice and not theme based’,[2] its themes also follow decolonisation and demonstrating the continued presence […]

Mediating climate visualities: Notes on Meteorological Mobilities

November 15, 2020/in Autumn 2020_#Method, Exhibition Reviews, Reviews

In The Ecological Thought, Timothy Morton remarks that  ecology isn’t just about global warming, recycling and solar power – and also not just to do with everyday relationships between humans and non-humans.

June 14, 2020/in Exhibition Reviews, Reviews, Spring 2020_#Intelligence
