Finissage & Performance Irina Gheorghe

Sunday, 21 November, 4 pm

Finissage of the exhibition Methods for The Study Of What Is Not There by Irina Gheorghe and final performance: Tools for Precision of the artist.

Tools for Precision is a performance in which wooden sticks painted in different colors become instruments in an investigation of the world beyond our senses. The performer’s interaction with the objects is characterised by repetition and failure, aiming to embody the contradictions of a research marked by incompleteness and uncertainty.  The objects become the catalysts of absurd encounters rather than tools for the study of a particular subject, Their precise mode of usage is uncertain, as is the methodology of researching things which are not present. One could imagine such objects belong to a post-apocalyptic scenario, where the traces of old civilizations are still present but their meaning and utility are no longer accessible.
