poster for "Present" Exhibition

This event has ended.

Curated by Jay Murphy, the multi-media exhibition is comprised of recent works by eight artists from Scotland, England, Germany, and France. As stated by Murphy in the exhibition catalogue essay, Present: Re-Entry, the exhibition explores artistic expression under conditions of surveillance technologies as well as the ever-shifting fractures and outlines of how permeable and flexible the boundaries we invent are. The diverse artworks can be understood as representing re-creations of the self through what we know from cybernetics as feedback loops that return to their initial starting points creating new beginnings. By setting the artworks on a par with such models, PRESENT asks how these works achieve their identity and affects.
