Abstraction as a hyper material enables a meta existence of motion, CORE REMISSION will unpack this notion through the mediums of painting and techno.
Abstraction
modulates reality, yet to enact it collectively it requires a physical
field. The architecture of clubs and galleries often offer this
territory. A public cube is always a place of latent potentials: near
visibility, against almost constraint. One could liken these sites of
collectivity, i.e. the club, the gallery, the cinema to voluntary prison
cells for those seeking a moment of abstract hyper density outside of
their constructed reality.
YOLO
often comes to mind when I think of abstraction. Thousands of novel or
risky acts becoming reduced to a universal (un)unique after sound: YOLO.
This neo-word, YOLO is both coltish and euphoric, as is any scene
slang. The word seems to have hijacked both yellow and hello, mashing
them into a hyper density gesture. A bold linguistic action. It renders
both a moment of adrenaline and resignation into a cute contemporary
cipher. The act requires a desire to become YOLO. Desire must bleed
between life and the abstract. Knotting into turbulence, ruptures, and
autonomous functioning cells to be able to exist.
We
can at this point likened desire to a scripted life scenario and
abstraction as the overlay of all possible realities of the plot.
Eventually, the script will turn into clandestine gossip, and we all
know gossip is more stimulating than life.
An
exhibition or set list by its very nature is temporary and queer, much
like gossip thus it remains a functional proposition. Be it a colour
field or a re-verb the process of abstraction is ultimately an extension
of the customary room with a view, a suicide of the now, a stage-death
that just stood up for the encore.
