World as diagram, work as dance

3 February - 4 March

Emalin is pleased to present World as diagram, work as dance, a group exhibition featuring Lawrence Abu Hamdan, Emily Barker, Simon Denny, Ana Viktoria Dzinic, Win McCarthy, Gretchen Lawrence, Carolyn Lazard, Coumba Samba and Diamond Stingily, curated by Tosia Leniarska.

Taking choreography as a method for mapping the body in space, the artists in the exhibition address structures of measurement, normativity and affect. They trace how social directions are arranged in objects across generations and places, how aesthetics are used in the restriction or shaping of bodies and how these are implicated in constructed space. Their works consider how spatial and material conditions produce affects, and the ways the organising of the body in turn translates to the organisation of the mind.
