Tenderly Towards the Tipping Point is a group show by artists from India that questions: "how can an exhibition occupy time?"
It brings together the group's artistic responses to time and the imposition of time.
Tenderly Towards the Tipping Point opens on Friday 20 October, 6pm – 8.30pm and includes a 'jam session'.
Followed on Saturday 21 October, 2 – 3.30pm with 'The Gathering' – a chance to explore issues raised by the work and the artists' practice.
The Group:
Mohit Shelare is a practitioner investigating the body and its documentation who is interested in the intersection of performance and its recall with diversity informing his work.
Kaushal Sapre is an artist based in Delhi who is interested in how technology reconfigures social and individual experiences, especially in the context of the digital milieu.
He responds to these questions by hacking into technological artefacts using programming, DIY electronics, image and sound processing and other creative research-based practices.
Sonam Chaturvedi is a Delhi-based inter-media artist and Assistant Lecturer at O.P. Jindal Global University, Sonipat.
She works with time and memory, where she explores alternate temporalities that resist its linear constructs.
Chaturvedi is also interested in understanding what role time plays in the current economic structure predominantly dependent on converting each hour into production time while capitalising on attention-time.
Aasma Tulika explores disruptions in belief systems and the role of control in everyday life through technological infrastructures.
She engages with social media narratives to document and highlight instances of ideological disorientation.
Bazik Thlana is a visual artist and academic researcher from Mizoram in New Delhi, who describes himself as a "socially conscious eccentric, rejecting conventional norms and embracing an unconventional approach to his work."
His inspiration comes from the intersection of urban living and tribal roots.
Klio Krajewska, Head of New Media Arts Development commented: "This exhibition reflects Watermans' constant ambition to bring vibrant cutting-edge international new media art as close to the audience as possible, where the visitor becomes an integral part of the project".
