(Event Over)

Curatorial Statement

“Modern humanity is distinguished by paleolithic emotions and medieval institutions like banks and religions, and god-like technology. We’re a mixed up and, in many ways, still archaic species in transition.”

- E. O. Wilson, American biologist, naturalist and writer; two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and ‘Father of Biodiversity’

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic upended life as we knew it. Healthcare systems; international travel and logistics networks; social, economic and even political rituals – we marvelled, trembled, and mourned as these blue-chip institutions of everyday life crumbled in a matter of weeks.

Regardless of our standing in society and sometimes divergent allegiances, many share a common desire to return to “normal”. Yet, after almost two years of living with the abnormal, extended crisis situation brought on by the coronavirus as well as a seemingly never-ending barrage of misinformation and “fake news”, what does “normal” even mean anymore?

In this new paradigm, where priorities have become privileges – and so many of both have been stripped away, how have our innermost desires and the substance of our selves been laid bare on the proscenium of our isolation, or contorted in accord with the demands of collective survival and “the greater good”?

This exhibition brings together art practitioners who explore themes of selfhood, wholeness, and the constant state of transition that seems characteristic of mortality; who navigate these essential questions posed by the fragmentation and uncertainties of modern life, and plumb the depths of what it means to be human in our everyday experiences and tragedies.
