Schemata presents IDENT, the second in its new curatorial programme. IDENT seeks to fill the club space once again with bodies, sounds and creatures, leaving behind the void it was once, showcasing artists who present a multitude of works building on identity.
About
Progressing from Vortex, where Schemata spontaneously generated from the void, IDENT our next show looks at us creating with intent. Evolving and forming our identity. What are we? What do we want to be? How do we move beyond? What can we take into the future and how do we make this a success for those artists we work with, our own concept of ourselves as a relevant and creative project and as a community endeavour. We’ve invited artists that we feel have a deep interest in a personal and social identity, human physicality and It’s bounds. Each bringing work that they feel interpret identity in their own personal realm, filling the space with bodies and movements and creatures and voice.
Then IDENT - is it marketing, is it art? A glance askance at how we are viewed and how we view ourselves.
Discrimination, acceptance, the desire to belong. Who can belong? Where can we belong? And who can we belong with?
We answer our own question: What are we? - We are ALL. We encourage unity between theAlternatives. Bringing together futurism with classicism, techno with ambience, the contemporary with the confrontational. From artists established in their practice to those wishing to shun and play with the ownership of their work, we welcome anonymity as we smash individualism, yet support the individual.
Working with artists from many spheres of the alternative, we present a show that is as mixed up as it is definitive. Deliberately obscure and contradictory, we embrace all art forms and mediums, as we attempt to represent a cross-section of Identity and the Self.
We present artists whose themes could make viewers feel uncomfortable.
This show is curated with multi-media works from 3d digital sculpture to video, sound and photography.NO ID. NO ENTRY.
