The Range

'Dear XXX

The Range is an exhibition approached as an artwork. The Range uses instinct and intuition as a guiding principle, bringing together a group of people and sharing resources (material, emotional) to realise an idea. The artists gathered in this show, and for the purposes of this show, speak to a sentiment/ an attitude/ a conviction; they have the range. All have shown work or created a public discussion that I have found myself drawn to; works and discussions that I've been moved by, affected by, laughed out loud to and most importantly wanted to return to. The Range is, after all, universal and entirely subjective. All the artists have crafted new works for this show, a show initiated by one group gathering in October 2018, a WhatsApp group chat and endless email threads. We discuss suns and moons, rice snacks, hysteria, diversity initiatives, ends theory© and diaspora technologies© (Adam Farah), grief, sadness, flu, joy, irreverence and pleasure. We hope you enjoy the show.
