Background Immunity
From April 27 to June 12, 2016. Sala Gran. BCN Producció'16
Using a neo-materialistic approach, the project investigates materials which, decontextualised from their business, scientific and technical environments, have become media used in the visual arts. The materials thus function directly as a discourse rather than a means, asserting the mechanisms that render them invisible and neutral within the flexible forms of art. In short, Background Immunity explores how the notion of progress affects the way in which the forms of artistic representation as well as the relationships of technical dependence between scientific development and artistic discourses responsive to the social evolution of technology are established.
