2030 Collective, BRINK
Hangar Gallery, Battersea, 19 - 25 May 2023.
Artists today are envisioning a plurality of new worldviews. Brink, a group exhibition from 2030 Collective, seeks the emergence of futures we all wish to live in. The curatorial premise of Brink, begins from the assumption that art, with its ability to address our precarious present and make meaning from it, can lead to a deeper understanding of the environmental challenges that we face. The term "brink" refers to the sense of being at a crucial or critical point, beyond which success or catastrophe may occur. It suggests a state of uncertainty, where the outcome of a situation is in the balance, and where even small actions or decisions can have a significant impact on the future.
SustainLab, LEGACY
Hockney Gallery, Kensington, 22 - 31 May 2023
SustainLab is a collaborative platform for all RCA students to explore what sustainability is and how it can be progressed. It is a middle ground for ideas to be challenged, investigated, experimented, and shared. We organise events, workshops and biweekly open-crits for students to develop their knowledge of sustainability and how to incorporate it into their creative processes.
Danuser & Ramirez, SEMANTICS OF LOVE
Hangar Gallery, Battersea, 26 May - 1 June 2023
What is the love ethic required to facilitate a nurturing relationship with our (shadow) selves, others and the planet? «Semantics of Love» is a transdisciplinary group exhibition that functions as a point of exploration for potential answers. Evading the sisyphean task of answering this question, the curators propose an assortment of antitheses, sketches, ideas, and references that discuss above mentioned relationships. The result is a microcosm of “love ethics” in RCA’s hangar space.
