MUTE

 

MUTE is an exhibition of silent videos from an international selection of video artists. During the exhibition, viewers will only be able to see the videos by peering through the windows at the running projection. By placing this obstacle between the viewer and their expectancies, MUTE makes manifest the silence that denotes the unifying quality through a range of otherwise very different works. In this way, MUTE closes the space of the gallery literally and temporally; the common metaphor adopted by the artist is that they live in a goldfish bowl, where they are under constant scrutiny or surveillance; MUTE inverts the metaphor and creates a diorama out of the gallery, exposing it as space that is fractured and fragile; MUTE pulls the viewer towards the screen, searching.

MUTE runs 24/7 thru April.
