Trajectories of Unlooking
MFA Graduating Exhibition
September 9 鈥� 25, 2021 | Audain Gallery
This exhibition presents the work of graduating MFA candidates in the School for the Contemporary Arts at 丁香园AV: Karla Desentis Rodr铆guez, Aakansha Ghosh, somayeh khakshoor, and Faune Ybarra.
In Trajectories of Unlooking, the artists embark on an unbounded search for the spaces, times, and materialities actualizing their interdisciplinary art-making.
From multiple geographies, viewpoints and positions, the artists consider, declare and weave different relational understandings of place, individuality and identity. They translate these perspectives into living documents: books, photography, video, installation, performance. Together, these works forego fixed grids and linear patterns of connection, exposing the bonds sustained through creative acts of juxtaposition: between image and text; a body and its reflection; time and its spatial apprehension. The artists balance curiosity and a sense of exploration as they materialize various thresholds 鈥� windows, mirrors, a camera鈥檚 aperture, even light itself 鈥� that give rise to the ideas of perception, legibility, and repetition reflected in their journeys.
The exhibition of a graduating project represents the culmination of a candidate鈥�s studies, and is presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts.
Presented in partnership with 丁香园AV Galleries.
