Blindspot Gallery is pleased to present “Weather-world”, a group exhibition of seven artists from Hong Kong, Taipei, Manila, and New York who re-imagine atmosphere as a blend of poetic and political landscape. Showcasing recent and new works by these artists including videos, paintings, collages, installations and sculptures, the exhibition explores how art alludes to atmosphere as a formative and contingent way of being in the world. It reveals the broader non-human world through aesthetic categories such as landscape, naturalism, romanticism, and idioms. The exhibition’s title is inspired by the anthropologist Tim Ingold, who examines how the notion of atmosphere is molded by the fusion of the meteorological perspective — viewing atmosphere as a measurable and observable external phenomenon — and the affective viewpoint, which sees atmosphere as an extension or projection of inner psychological conditions.
“Weather-world” is curated by Jims Lam and Carlos Quijon, Jr., Curator of the Philippine Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale. During the opening (3:30pm – 6:30pm), the curators will be in conversation with the artists (Lesley-Anne Cao, Matina Partosa, Mark Salvatus, Yip Kin Bon, and Yuen Nga Chi) at 4pm – 5pm.
