Unabridged

Künstlerhaus 1010 Vienna, 02.2024, curated by Phelim McConigly

Compiling a sound installation by Patricia J. Reis and Dora Deliyska, together with the video “Pulsation” – video by Axel Stockburger, sound by Kai Maier-Rothe, as well as sculptural positions by Anna Hofbauer, Phelim McConigly, Flavio Palasciano and Johanna Charlotte Trede, Unabridged considers various positions between in/-determinism.

It is the functional site (Meyer 1995) where the contours of indeterminacy emerge momentarily – the transience of sculptural form against mechanical rhythms, crossing over and over again. 

This functional site, a situation-specific expansion which disables and enables sound against form, creates a cadence of intersection. From the comparison to the contradictory, the cathartic to the detached, the temporal swing will see its way to the end and back. Thrown, volleyed, pivoted, consumed, superimposed, flown, and returned, over and over again.

Tinderstick

AFAIR they were the one wearing the tindersticks shirt, but I don’t think either of us owned one.

…Always liked the idea of a body double, like there’s endless possibilities for different paths in life. These William Blake paintings coming back to life, ambivalent manifestations of iconic image, fascination with body doubles, taking historical existing figuration and transposing them into this coexistence, like parallel universes, you see them all at once on one level, historical narrative and banal reenactment trapped in a contemporary context.

Am not I – A fly like thee? – Or art not thou – A man like me?

Sound piece in collaboration with Alex Jackson Wyatt, James Swift & William Blake
