ULTRASONIC INFRACRIES

Group  show


The present conceptual group art exhibition explores relations between the symptomatology of manic depression and cultural tactics in contemporary capitalism, from the point of the psyche of the subject in them. It is the diploma thesis of the curator, who studies in The School of Architecture of the Technical University of Crete, and it constitutes their attempt to connect the alienating experience of the disease with the social reality in order to be liberated from it through comprehension.

The experience of the manic-depressive spectrum becomes the occasion for a curation that recognizes rampant inductive thought loops, suicidal ideations, disputed self-confidence, and addictive pleasures in dysphoria in the artistic practices of creators who study the current. This is not an exhibition of the 'mentally ill' and argues for a visibility on the aesthetics of thought. The artist’s work here refers to how the subjects internally respond to the contemporary technocratic capitalist situation and negotiate with their identity.

The space of Esto Association and its individual elements, in dialogue with the artworks and their topology, incorporate the manifestation of the curatorial discourse.

Participating artists:
RUKI I SUPER GONORRHEA and NIKOS GIANNIOS I MILTOS DIGKAS I TØMI aka TOMSCODE I MITIKAFE I ONE SILENCED PUPPET I KHARES TOKATLIDES




Is our social reality actually less brutal and aggressive than the epidemic mental disorders we clinically treat?
