MOTHS DRINK THE TEARS OF SLEEPING BIRDS #7
WHEN | 26 February, 18:00
ENTRY | 3,5€ [monthly member fee]
Moths drink the tears of sleeping birds is a scientific statement and proposition of intent. It forms the starting point for a cycle that explores itinerancy as a mode of practice, an experiment that can be both subtle and fierce. For each edition of the cycle, materials are selected for a screening, into which two artists are invited to intervene using sound, image, installation, performance... How these interventions play out cannot be foreseen. Still, as the moth that hovers for an instant over the bird, everything subsequently disappears, moments of cross-contamination that vanish without trace.
For the seventh edition artists Marcelo Felix and Nina Fraser have chosen to subvert the usual format of the cycle, this time using text and experiments in frottage to create the short film
Curated by: Isobel Atacus
Invited Artists: Marcelo Felix and Nina Fraser
Support: República Portuguesa – Cultura / Direção-Geral das Artes

Artist talk: “From body to earth; mini implosions and sometimes the opposite”

20/1/2022

Friday, February 11th, from 7pm to 8.30pm 
@ O Gabinete de Madame Thao (LX Factory, loft i2-07), Lisbon.

Reflecting upon her ‘circle series’, some of which are featured in the latest exhibition Historias de boudoir, Nina unveils questions and thoughts surrounding her practice in the recent years, touching on upon issues of repair, rebuilding, perception of trauma, mundanity and home, that interweave through her collage and mixed media works on paper.

There will be no entrance fee but you can donate to support OGMT programming 

Cut Me Up Issue 8: guided by instinct

3/1/2022

 
Picture
Cut Me Up Issue 8: Guided by Instinct, curated by Naomi White, is a selection of 18 artworks that explore humans’ complex relationships with animals, and the implications these relationships have on our lives and planet.

In our relationship with animals, there are many contradictions. As John Berger declares in Why Look At Animals, “Animals first entered the imagination as messengers and promises. For example, the domestication of cattle did not begin as a simple prospect of milk and meat. Cattle had magical functions, sometimes oracular, sometimes sacrificial.” We mythologize and revere animals, yet sacrifice, tame, kill and consume them. What does that say about us as a species?

The artists in this issue investigate the dualistic meanings which animals embody and the contradictions in ourselves that this relationship illuminates. Exploring our paradoxical desires to nurture, love, dominate and consume animals, the artists’ responses range from tenderness to concern, from joy to enchantment.

Cut Me Up is a participatory magazine of visual call and response founded by Andrea Burgay. Each issue presents a curated selection of original collage images that will become raw material for reader-artists to respond by cutting, reconfiguring, and transforming them into new artworks, in response to curatorial calls addressing contemporary issues. The newly created responses
form the content of the next issue.
