"If categories are unstable, we must watch them emerge within encounters" - Anna Tsing
Ved denne artist talk vil Sophia Ioannou Gjerding og Mark Tholander give et kig ind i deres kunstneriske praksis med udgangspunkt i deres udstilling "Ensembles and Monsters", som lige nu vises på Kunsthal Aarhus.
Levede erfaringer har indflydelse på, hvordan vi møder verden. Vi er påvirket af vores interpersonelle relationer, den kultur vi lever i, og hvad vi har lært i skolen eller derhjemme. I udstillingen "Ensembles and Monsters" udforsker begge kunstnere den såkaldte bagage, vi medbringer, når vi engagerer os i verden omkring os.
I sit værk begynder Sophia Ioannou Gjerding med at udforske, hvordan vores forhold til andre væsner påvirkes af videospil. Og særligt hvordan visse videospil afspejler det at samle eller sanke, men i det omfang hvor det bliver til hoarding.
Mark Tholander bearbejder den bagage af idealer, der er indlejret i fællesskaber. Gennem performance udforskes de forskellige roller, vi tildeles og lever efter hele vejen fra familiemedlem til borger. Sammen med en række skuespillere og musikere undersøger Tholander, hvordan disse interpersonelle relationer påvirker vores verdensbillede og betinger, hvad eller hvem vi kommer i kontakt med.

"If categories are unstable, we must watch them emerge within encounters" - Anna Tsing
At this artist talk, Sophia Ioannou Gjerding and Mark Tholander will give an insight into their artistic practice based on their exhibition "Ensembles and Monsters", which is currently on display at Kunsthal Aarhus.
Various experiences influence how we encounter the world. We are influenced by our interpersonal relationships, through culture, and by what we learned in school or at home. In "Ensembles and Monsters", both artists explore the so-called baggage we bring with us when we engage with the world around us.
In her work, Sophia Ioannou Gjerding begins by exploring how our relationship to other beings are influenced by video games, and in particular how certain video games mirror the act of gathering or foraging, but to the extent to which it becomes hoarding.
Mark Tholander looks at the baggage of ideals embedded in communities. Through performance, different roles - ranging from family member to citizen - are explored. An array of actors and musicians allow Tholander to explore how these interpersonal relationships constitute our worldview, and how they change what or who we meet.
