In collaboration with UK/Belgium-based artist Tiago Duarte, Castlefield Gallery is inviting Belgium-based artists Joke Van den Heuvel, Vijai Patchineelam, Adrien Tirtiaux and Floris Vanhoof to exhibit existing, new and site-specific work.
From technologies whose days may be numbered to narratives produced by the barely perceptible, diverse subjects and disciplines inform the practices of the exhibiting artists.
Diagonal Noise will coincide with the EU referendum and as Thursday 23 June approaches the UK public are being asked to consider our relationship with the European Union in the context of politicised maybes. This could be an interesting coincidence, but this exhibition leans more towards causality than chance. In places the works in Diagonal Noise are intrusive, forcing or slipping their way into one another, presenting states of dis-encounter, contingent proposals below the watermark of comprehension, of what might have been or might yet be.
