Ruth Bianco explains the reasoning behind the theme and the chosen works and artists:
“The idea for this exhibition grew out of a continuing interest with the “notion of territory”. The participants are all artists I’ve met on my travels while they themselves were “away from home”, engaged in fine art research. It is within this ongoing context of interrogation and travel that I would like to introduce the works in this joint exhibition. This implies that the work is contextually fluid and nomadic – open-ended, questioning journeys, rather than closures. The show, therefore, is “a-topic” in that the works resist fixture and examine “territory” through temporality.”
The exhibition runs until 28 June at: MCA, 8 Off Racecourse Street, Marsa.
