Talk To Me
AXIOM presents "Talk To Me", the fourth annual collaboration with Massachusetts College of Art and Design's Studio for Interrelated Media. As part of Axiom's mission to extend support to emerging artists working in new and experimental media, this year the show will also include students from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. Two classes, the year long Electronic Projects for Artists class through MassArt's SIM program, and the Kinetic Sculpture class at SMFA, have come together to present "Talk to Me".
The title "Talk To Me" refers to the common theme of communication, person to person, robot to person and, yes, animal to person, between all of the works in the show. Works in the exhibition are both electronic and kinetic, ranging from interactive to wearable. Sabri Reed's wearable sculpture is designed to be "signed-out" by gallery goers and used outside the gallery, where the apparatus provides the wearer with directions via an on-board compass. Other works in the show include a video synthesizer played by ants whose work in their colonies plays music, and an animated artificial life environment controlled by human breath. In addition, there will be a live performance including home-made synthesizers at the opening reception on June 5th.
Talk to Me is curated by Dana Moser and Fred Wolflink, co-teachers at Massachusetts College of Art and Design, and Chris Wawrinofsky of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts.
