A Land Unknown
Lim & Zaes’ installation piece collects various visual, tactile, sonic and human-made phenomena, all of which unfold at, and on, the actual and the mediated material surfaces on display. The pieces are sculptural and yet they stand in as placeholders for that which is absent. They open themselves to the visitor’s perception and imagination. In a sense, this work is a land unknown to the visitors and the artists alike. [This work is supported by the Canton of Zug]
Quotations is a visual-sonic exhibition of original audio pieces by various artists. It will showcase past releases from the label ‘Quills That Whisper’, reincarnated as objects, films, sound and textual installations. Presented works engage with spoken and sung voices, words and soundings employed in diverse ways in order to deliver personal and fictional stories alike. Exhibiting artists include JJ Devereaux, Emily DeDakis, Jihye Kim, Lenka Davidikova, Una Lee and HIVE Choir.
Quills That Whisper’s Quotations exhibition will have an extended run beyond the festival dates until Thursday 21st April with gallry opening times Tue, Wed and Thu 10am-5pm.
