[september 21] PARENTHESIS @ the Millennium Workshop in NYC!🗽

Parenthesis will be a part of the exhibition Bookmarks of Discomfort Vol.2 at the Millennium Workshop in NYC this upcoming Wednesday, September 21st starting at 7:30pm. The exhibition is curated by the multidisciplinary artist Priyanka Das and includes amazing artists who are also wonderful friends and colleagues.

Bookmarks of Discomfort is a series of screenings/presentations to bring together artists, creators who address the idea of discomfort through visual, aural, physical and textual monographs. Often we confront our true selves, an assertive voice of being through uncomfortable situations, circumstances, crisis or struggle. Unfortunately, those moments of discomfort are often grounded on the societal hegemonic, both explicit and implied codes of being, behaving, experiencing, understanding, and interpreting. When we find ourselves in those discomfort/ challenging moments, we may respond to comply, resist, remain indifferent, revolve, reflect, observe and many more ways. These moments of discomfort present itself and affect different races, ethnicities, and individuals with collectives and communities differently. 16 diverse artists, coming together to present the idea of discomfort in their own subjective ways.

[june 24-28] Parenthesis @ non-syntax Experimental Image Festival 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼

Parenthesis is screening in Taipei, Taiwan starting from tomorrow (6/24) until June 28th at the Roof Light for the non-syntax Experimental Image Festival. The section is called “Obscure Meditation”.

The exhibition pieces in this section provide the viewer with a cyclical and meditative experience. The images are not unidirectional timelines from 00:00 to the end, and we should not forget that all images are light sources that are repeatedly projected, refracting and cycling in each viewing.

(❤️thank you!❤️)

Parenthesis by Vasilios Papaioannu

“non-syntax Experimental Image Festival” begins by focusing on the experimental nature of images in the contemporary, linking practices across countries, reorganizing existing media and genres, and bringing different images into dialogue with each other to consider the possibilities of the image. “non-syntax” indicates the conflict that occurred in writing. The connection of two vocabularies creates a vacuum of meaning that is present itself via erasing its gramma. Through the assemblage of works, the discussion of issues, and the mixing of genres and groups, the diversity of contemporary images are mapped out.
