Call for Participation: Thesis study exploring interactive installations

Do you want to be a part of unique interactive experiences and meaningful visual feedback? …and take a breather to blow some bubbles? …

Tranquil[ized] Bodies: The [Post] Post-Mortem Condition, is an examination of time, space, and place of being; relating to the mindfulness of the body and mortality in the contemporary moment. This project focuses on highlighting a vital, metaphysical exercise of confrontation and contemplation with mortality through static and kinetic, interactive sculpture and installation, comprised of an industrial-organic anti-aesthetic. Creating an immersive experience with mortality as a means to awaken the stagnant body and being. This body of work investigates the human being's disengagement with life, authenticity, and meaning; through the vantage point of abject theory, embodiment, and metaphor. Outlining that the essential pathway to the refinement of the self is through perpetual interaction with mortality. This function of confrontation and contemplation draws upon my own experience with death, as a person with a permanent illness. Through self-reflexivity, a/r/tography, and triangulation methods, this body of work explores how utopian constructs of happiness functions as a nucleolus for pathological states of being. Utilizing embodiment to explore interaction with the unknown as a means to live mindfully. Through the interwoven duality of temporality (life) and permanence (death), this project examines the dialectics of the fully integrated human being, advocating for mindfulness and the appreciation of life. Studying the dichotomy within utopian and dystopian spheres of human nature, which cuts a human being off from the true feeling of being alive.

At any given time, we are surrounded by microscopic fungi. Our cohabitation with these invisible molds and yeasts is quite normal, regardless of where we live or how clean we keep our spaces. This research project aims to exemplify this reality by making the invisible visible and presenting a variety of fungi sampled from homes around the world. The visual component of the exhibition, fungal cultures within glass terrariums, are accompanied by sonic and tactile interpretations of the cultures as well. By means of a multisensory approach, this research project not only intends to demonstrate our entanglement with microscopic fungi, but also to counter unwarranted apprehensions and misconceptions. The mixed media tactile pieces and cross-modal sonifications invite the public to engage with and think about fungi in entirely new ways. This accessible, multisensory unveiling of our fungal roommates conveys just one microscopic example of the many interspecies entanglements that we take part in.
