The zine will double as a community archive, including sensory mapping of the gallery's surroundings – capturing the sounds, sights, and colours of the area. Exploring what happens when we stop and investigate one place, allowing time to see what would normally stay unseen.”
A message from the artists:
We are thrilled to have begun nesting in the confines of Current Gallery amidst a weekend of intense heat. Sitting in silence, together we began to trace the building and become acquainted with the place that will hold us over the next 4 weeks.
Amidst our exploration, we have begun planning on several workshops open to the wider community who wish to explore this notion of the gallery as a space to rest, digest and explore.
Our intention with these workshops is to hold an environment that encourages a sense of vastness and slowness, similar to the river's flow towards the ocean, and to explore the liminality of space, bodies, and time. We hope this space provides a platform for artists and writers to engage with the complexities of our surroundings and to share space in a gentle and intentional way.
