TERESA COS - CLOUDS ARE NOT SPHERES, MOUNTAINS ARE NOT CONES

ARTIST PRESENTATION

"Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line”.
- Benoît Mandelbrot, The Fractal Geometry of Nature

Lecture by Teresa Cos on the occasion of her ongoing exhibition 'The Measure of Disorder' at Argos Centre for Art and Media.

After the lecture you will be able to visit the show for free before it closes on 23 December. The bar will also be open until 22h!

Teresa Cos makes use of improvisation and reiteration techniques to create audiovisual works which investigate the active and passive forms of repetition at the bases of human emotional and social processes. Her work offers a multi-scaled re-reading of history through an embodied experience of socio-political landscapes and reflects the tension between situated conditions of birth and forms of displaced nomadic becoming. Often permeated by a sense of tragicomedy, her work ultimately questions notions of proximity and distance, time (ir)reversibility and memory accumulation.

This presentation is part of the master lectures of Sint Lucas Antwerpen and is co-organised by Sint Lucas Antwerpen and Argos Centre for Art and Media.
