An exhibition in Tokyo curated by Emma Lewis of Trampoline in Nottingham, UK.
The official information:
We constantly swim through an invisible sea of hidden reality ñ our environment is not formed only by our physical surroundings but of its multiplicity of insubstantial networks ñ constantly transmitting and receiving. Physical geography is being transcended, psycho-geography is extended. We are never located in just one space. Here is not just here but also there.
Dislocate is an exhibition examining the tensions between the local and the global ñ the elements and identity of one local space which are simultaneously intersected by countless global links and influences.
The exhibition brings together a group of innovative artists based in UK and Japan. All of the works in this exhibition demand participation leading the viewer to question their place amongst these many floating worlds.
The exhibition aims to consider our contribution to the city, our impact on our space and our perception of it. As structures which surround us become not only rooted in their locality but increasingly networked we must consider our integration, awareness and interaction with these networked spaces.
This exhibition is produced in association with Trampoline. Trampoline is a new media art organisation based in Nottingham, UK and Berlin, Germany. This platform for new media is dedicated to promoting new technology art and artists through exhibition, commissioning and educational events.
