LOOP
Eastside Projects (Birmingham)
25 September - 4 December 2021


 

LOOP is an exhibition constituted by actions and gestures, choreographed and presented to audiences, defined by the body, the floor, the walls, the sound, the sensors, the womb, the book, by whirling, by dancing with nature, and by trying to position these practices in the loop of history. 

We don’t know what comes next but we want to perform again. We want to speak. To say something about subjectivity, class, race, and gender at play. We are artists constructing narratives, histories, fictions, and processes of being live, physical, virtual, and mediated.

LOOP asks what is at stake in encountering and experiencing performance? And how is this experience negotiated live and in person with the possibility of close physical proximity? Or mediated, distanced, documented and transmitted via technology and screens?
