AIE Intern: Kelley O'Leary
In negotiating our human experience, we order our reality and express meaning through several languages: the spoken and written word, moving images, time and physical space. Behaviors that begin quite naturally can easily descend into routine. How do these limits affect our perception?
Through the absurdist spirit of DADA, OUT-OF-ORDER explores experimental video as a tool for interpreting and subverting conventional modes of perception, reordering these standardized languages and presenting them anew. The exhibition showcases the artists' experimental process as well as its products. Parameters, Disruption, and Interpretation: students are developing sets of basic working principles, exercising those structures across different media, then deliberately reinterpreting those structures through video. OUT-OF-ORDER points to our habits of thinking, reminding us to reorder them and challenge ourselves toward new visions.
SoEx's Youth Advisory Board is a youth-driven afterschool program where students collaborate with professional artists to produce an art exhibition at SoEx. This Spring, YAB is producing an experimental video project with teaching artists Allison Leigh Holt and Jonathan Weisburst, in conversation with an upcoming Fall 2013 SoEx project: Difficult to Make Out. The YAB project, OUT-OF-ORDER , seeks to challenge the thought systems that determine the nature of our experience. The project is the culmination of experimental processes and exercises across different media, and the final reception will present these experiments as well as a screening of student work.
