Re: Over everything which exists under the sky
Re: Over everything which exists under the sky is a collaborative and interdisciplinary project taking place at Gasworks, London. A group of international curating students have initiated the first curatorial residency at Gasworks to run alongside the institution’s long-established international artist residency programme. Over an eight month period, the curators-in-residence are transforming Gasworks’ Participation Space into a temporary research studio, questioning what it means to be a resident in both the art world and the wider geopolitical context of restricted mobility.
Engaging with artists, botanists, astrologers, writers and a constellation of other constituents, the project proposes new ways of encountering both human and non-human journeys. The Open Studio between 23–26 May 2019 showcased to the public the newly commissioned works and research by seven invited artists: Xinhao Cheng, Helena Hunter, Mati Jhurry, Romy Kießling, Marissa Malik, Niccolò Moronato and Fatima Uzdenova. Offering a multiplicity of perspectives upon patterns of human and non-human movement, the project embodies both collective research and speculation.
