This event has ended.

Flux Factory presents its next 2017 Major Exhibition, Tongue Tide.

Inspired by Flux Factory’s location in Queens, NY — the most language-dense area in the world— Tongue Tide explores the multitude of ways in which artists engage with language, addressing both its tide-like ebb and flow as well as its limitations.

Investigating the ways in which we experience, use and understand words, the projects will take many forms including: games, performances, photography, installation, neon sign, nomadic library, opera, karaoke booth, artists books, online dictionary, video installation, walks, conversations over meals, visual storytelling workshops and more.
