Limbo<\/strong><\/em><\/a>
\nSaturday 04 May 2019<\/strong>
\nSEAS – Socially Engaged Art Salon, Brighton<\/strong><\/p>\n

Limbo<\/em> isn\u2019t just the imaginary place or state of all holy souls after death, but a real condition. The artists in the exhibition present limbo spaces that have risen due to Brexit, austerity, socio-economic insecurity, racism and xenophobia. They explore on a personal and national level what it is to be in-between and to live in uncertainty.<\/p>\n

The exhibition includes paintings, photography, installations and video-art, Artists’ talks and film screening. Dates for events will be posted on SEAS Facebook.<\/p>\n

Part of Artists’ Open Houses – Brighton and with a collaboration of SEAS, #BMECP<\/a> Centre (https:\/\/bmecp.org.uk\/<\/a>) and #Euromernet<\/a> (https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/euromernet\/<\/a>) and #Figmentarts<\/a> www.figmentarts.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n

Unhomely Street<\/em> follows a female protagonist in a state of fugue following a head injury as she wanders an alienating city underbelly of clubs and free parties. Through recollections of anti-capitalist conversations, historical information about wartime atrocity, and human brutality, she searches for hope in an increasingly frightening, subjective landscape.<\/p>\n

\"GENT<\/a><\/p>\n

The film explores the Derridean concept of hauntology both in terms of its original context taken from Spectres of Marx where Derrida suggests that \u2018time is out of joint\u2019 and that we are haunted by spectres of those dead and those not yet born, as well as recognising Mark Fisher\u2019s interpretation that mourns the lost futures of the twentieth century, suggesting we live in a time of mental illness, unable to envisage a future that is different to current times.<\/p>\n

Unhomely Street<\/em> is a deeply personal film that aims to employ new approaches to filmmaking through multiple narrative strands and a focus on tone and metaphor in an attempt to communicate a subjective experience.<\/p>\n
