DANIEL BOYD – DREAM TIME

Posted on 2024-10-27

With his unique pictorial language, Daniel Boyd seeks to “de-locate our visual perception from a single entry to one of multiplicity” by directing our gaze toward narratives obscured by empire and oppressive cultural framework. Taking as his subject landscapes, historical representations, and portraits linked to his own personal history, heretofore invisible, as well as iconic figures rarely depicted in the visual arts, Daniel Boyd continues to transmit and transpose his cultural and artistic traditions while expanding our collective imagination.

The title of the exhibition responds to “dreamtime,” the term given by early European anthropologists to define what they understood to be the mythology behind the natural order of things for most Australian Aboriginal groups, proposing a reductive vision of their cultures, which are both highly diverse and interconnected by complex narrative networks. Boyd, who is of plural origins (descended from indigenous Australians and South Sea islanders), splits the term dreamtime into binary opposites (Dream Time), allowing the uncontrollable nature of a dream to be freed from the European linear and controlled perception of time.

ASTRID SONNE – STAYING HERE

Posted on 2024-10-27

Great Doubt is the third full length LP by Danish composer Astrid Sonne. Throughout her acclaimed discography, Astrid Sonne has carefully crafted different moods through electronic and acoustic instrumental endeavours. On Great Doubt, this skill is refined, now with the distinct addition of the composer’s vocal in front. The tone of each track is unmistakably Sonne’s, structured around contrasts through an impeccable sense of timing. Lyrics on the album are sparse, merely highlighting different scenes or emotional states of being, leaving the music to fill in the blanks. Yet they also form a pattern of ambiguity, consolidated through the album title, searching for answers through looking at how and what you are asking, questions for the world, questions of love.
