Why So Wordy?

Exhibition






Summary






Let’s question the stories we tell... Climate Crisis can be so wordy and difficult to sense; Anthropocene, The Sixth Great Extinction, Climate Emergency, Ecocide, Eco-anxiety etc. How do these terms resonate with us? Which assumptions define the ruling narratives? Can physical modes of expression and art free us from the rigidity of our own language, our wired tongues?
With the group show ‘Why So Wordy?’, iovermorgen presents an explorative exhibition with contributions from across artistic disciplines by practitioners from Denmark and abroad. The interplay of the exhibited seeks to uncover the potential of artistic expression as an essential co-creator of a nuanced and feeling-based dialogue around the Climate Crisis.

20 artworks and the 2 live acts take the shape of photo, texts, video, sculpture, installation, performance, smells and things in between. ‘Why So Wordy?’ contributes to reflection on; i.e material usage in the making of art, emotional bonds, new and forgotten landscapes, new natures, authority, and identity, extended bodies and inner worlds in a common reality - it is a collection of voices which presents a wide range of nuances on the Climate Crisis.

Common for the pieces is the visible absence of bodies that once rested in the hospital interior. iOM! develops a scenographic curation with the use of former hospital furniture, reassembled and mounted to distort the expectations of the behavior at a hospital. By uncovering blocked skylights and windows through the act of ‘subtraction’, an uncanny lightning of the 16 pieces is staged in hallways and operating theatre.
