DECAYEDJUNGLE
A Group Exhibition by S?&K!&Y?
“decayedjungle”, comes from a theoretic metaphysical concept of being in between states of existence, a transient space where objects are put in a state where it is neither functioning nor decomposing, serving as a tangent part of a whole. This tangent space is represented by site-specific installations within a few spaces of abandon, selected based on the properties and aesthetics of the location and its surroundings.
The constructed theory is then applied to the elements that surround the theme of urban living, whether it be development and demolition, acceptance and alienation or even production and destruction.
Along the city centre, three artists collaborate as a unit to create installation works that embody and interact with forces that come and go within this metaphysical property. These locations with constructed artworks serve as a field of attraction, through its reaction and interaction with the surrounding forces, it display the somewhat ritualistic processes which occur between states of existence.
As an exchange, they collect sounds, objects, documentation and retranslate them into different forms in the exhibition space, as a means to complete the transmission of forces from one space to another.
