Exhibition Design/Poster Design

Designed by Xinyuan Li

An ensemble of figures appear before us—each is engaged in different modes of performative actions, hinting at the choreographic potential of a collective movement. The group’s actions are suggestive of alternative systems of living and belief, with themes and motifs which are explored in readings about modernist counterculture, architecture, environmentalism, and cinema.

In these photographs and video works we find ourselves in a range of settings; public parks, the interior of empty or uninhabited buildings, houses, and community halls. Utilising collage and splicing images from one into another, these works generate a plurality of possible readings. The scenarios taking place in the images may suggest a shuffling of time frames, past into a possible future, future into the past.
