softbrutalist:An announcement : Bodies are fragile things. The last year of pandem(-ic)/(-onium) has forced this sentiment into our collective conscience, our sociality withering to permit a new awareness of the individual.When the body simply is and we have nowhere to go, destinations are bounded by our minds. To escape isolation and dysmorphia, to transcend hopelessness, many turn to body-altering experiences to expand their limits. Self burned and searing pupils, we (re)turn to art to arouse emotions and to find that elusive thing to believe in when time seems have no beginning and no end.< excerpted from the plans for pharmakon, the upcoming group exhibition I am so honoured to be curating > (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia)https://www.instagram.com/p/COT2ytRjBNW/?igshid=14tzczi151ohz -- source link
