"Conundrum Express" Exhibition
Jamaica Center for Arts & Learning
This event has ended.
Curated by Shinnie Kim, Conundrum Express challenges viewers to expand their frame of reference and look beyond the initial visual appearance of an art piece. Instead of indulging in the breakdown of the visual, the work itself becomes the reflective maze wherein the answer resides. Drawn in, the viewer becomes actively involved in deciphering complex composition and diverse perspectives. Acknowledging the multiplicity of cognitive modes of connecting ideas, the exhibition deliberately avoids didactically presenting a singular discourse of master narrative.
The artists featured in Conundrum Express defy the logics of imagery discourse by using their own visual languages with witty and playful approaches. A multitude of staged elements and stylized compositions orchestrate an emergence of a higher level of visual information while creating interactions at the viewer’s level. The exhibition works as a medium of engagement that invites viewers to explore a range of enigmatic and intricate reasoning models as if it were a brainteaser game.
