{ guttural },,,{ fleshless }

About

Rooting itself in the body as the site and host of infinite, uncomparable forms of bodily knowledges, the exhibition expands the notion of embodiment into virtual, durational, and participatory realms. 

By foregrounding embodied and process-driven practices, { guttural },,,{ fleshless } invites visitors to engage sensorially, and to blur the lines between spectator, witness, and participant. The exhibition presents works across prose, drawing, computer games, sculptural installation and painting, exploring topics ranging from nightlife, foraging, the unseen, past lives, rituals, site responsivity, and translation.

The exhibition’s public programme extends the core conceptual investigation by embracing the unrehearsed. Alongside curator tours, artist talks, and playthroughs, Min Yu and By Hand will be activating the exhibition space through a live tattoo performance and an acupressure workshop respectively.
