Pandemic-Pandemonium! Curated by Kennii Ekundayo
Galeri ODUMIJE, Lagos (NG)
Pandemic-Pandemonium! is a two-part presentation centered on the collective response of Africans living in Africa vis-à-vis current prevalent issues that threaten humankind — racial discrimination, violence against women and the COVID-19 pandemic. Whilst one part makes a statement on the resilience of the human spirit in the face of the deadly coronavirus, the other focuses on the valorization of melanin-rich skin amidst the fatal hostility that accompanies it.
Viral Fiction
Forms of Ownership (INT)
Geld und Recht prägen einen großen Teil unseres Alltags. In einer Hyperbel der sozialen Skulptur ist unsere künstlerische Praxis darin verankert, sich diesen Systemen als künstlerische und kreative Medien an sich zu nähern.
How to make an Ocean?
Kasia Molga (PL/UK)
Können menschliche Tränen das Leben im Meer erhalten? Kasia Molga wird ihren Weg von der Konzeption des Projekts erzählen, inspiriert durch den Umgang mit persönlicher Trauer; über die Auswirkungen von COVID-19 auf ihre ursprüngliche Idee; über die verrückte Errichtung eines provisorischen Nasslabors; über das Erlernen des Weinens auf Kommando; über ihre Bemühungen, winzige Meerestiere in ihren Tränen am Leben zu erhalten; und über ihre Versuche, einen KI-Moirologen zu entwickeln – einen weinenden Bot, der uns allen helfen soll, ein paar Tränen zu vergießen.

Journey: Adriatic Garden | aqua_forensic 2.0

The project framework is the aqua_forensic, an ongoing art and science research method developed by Robertina Šebjanič (SI) and Gjino Šutić (HR), which sheds light on the presence of invisible anthropogenic chemical pollutants in the water environment.
Mediation in AIR Gallery
Pangardenia is an epidemic that has taken over the gardens and gardens that have taken over us. It vests everyone with the desire to grow or be grown by somebody else. We, St.-Petersburg artists, want to explore this phenomenon, find the new life forms generated by this epidemic and study the old ones which were preserved and hidden in the gardens. Pangardenia is made up of four paths: Parniki, Abandoned gardens, Wandering gardens, and Post(non)human gardens. One day for each path (subtheme) and a closing move of Pangardenia.

An Online Tour of Dublin’s Tech Infrastructure
Dublin is host to the European headquarters of many of the most powerful and influential tech companies of the modern era, and has become an important strategic location within the context of debates surrounding data sovereignty, privacy and security. By connecting our own personal interactions on digital platforms to the corporate offices in the city centre and to the data centres that surround the city, this tour critically engages with these debates, whilst also reflecting on our relationship with our personal data as it passes through the many visible and invisible networks that surround us.
Axis - Harvesting isolation
Víctor Mazón Gardoqui (ES/DE)
7-day trip from Punta Arenas, 32-hour waiting in front of the Yelcho scientific station Waiting on the high seas for a favorable climatic window to continue sailing, supposes a dislocation of space and time. The parallel 66° 33′ 46″ passes in front of us. A still image exposed to 24 hours of light, on a 360° horizon. The staticity of the sea in the bay of Yelcho. An abrupt and mountainous environment added to the roar of the katabatic winds generates a rupture of perception in scale and distance. The wait. Advancing a small way to the base. Space for registration. The devices -through their sensors- capture the sense of place. A viewing angle of 46° in contrast with the spherical and immersive recording of the hertziosphere, where the alterity of bodies and anthropogenic frequencies in contrast with the autochthonous ones.
