Noise (back-broadcast through the persistent illusion), 2017
Video and mixed media installation
Production by Sharjah Art Foundation
Venue: Al Hamriyah Studios
A.S.T. (Alliance of the Southern Triangle) is an experimental initiative of artists, architects and curators, including Diann Bauer (London), Felice Grodin, Elite Kedan (Miami) and Patricia M. Hernandez (New York). Its members often collaborate with others outside the immediate group, and for SB13, they will be working with architect and scholar Keller Easterling (New York). A.S.T.’s projects range from sculpture to painting and architectural work to video installations. They explore how art and design can be a site for the development of thought adequate to the geospatial, political, urban, ecological and cultural realities of the twenty-first century.
Drawing on Easterling’s book Extrastatecraft (2014), A.S.T. collectively examines how ‘infrastructure sets the invisible rules that govern the space of everyday lives.’ With no single, identifiable force to oppose, the initiative’s work Noise (back-broadcast through the persistent illusion) (2017) takes an interest in unexplored conceptions of agency, resistance and temporality that could evolve from leveraging existing networks, forces, ruptures and flows already in play. This conceptual exploration takes the form of a multichannel video installation that incorporates animation work by artist Keith Tillford, planetary scientist Pasquale Tricarico and engineer Andrew Wong. The project also includes the website astronaut.io, designed by Wong with James Thompson and featuring sound by musician Jake Meginsky.
