Rhizome – Myndlistarsýning
Þér er boðið á opnun Rhizome, sýningu gestalistamanns Gilfélagsins Jessicu Tawczynski í Deiglunni laugardaginn 25. nóvember kl. 14 – 17. Einnig opið sunnudag kl. 14 – 17. Léttar veitingar í boði og listamaðurinn verður á staðnum.
Sýningin Rhizome (e. Jarðstöngull) undirstikar áhuga myndlistarmannsins Jessicu Tawczynski á eðli jarðstöngulsins eins og hann er kynntur af heimspekingunum Deleuze og Guittari. Jarðstöglinum er lýst sem rótarkerfi eða korti, eitthvað sem getur ekki fjölgað sér án þess að umbreytast, veruleiki sem er síbreytilegur en fastur í hringrás líðandi stundar.
Jessica skapar sér sjónrænt tungumál með því að daðra við vísinda- og heimspekikenningar ásamt því að samtvinna akademíska þekkingu og reynslu. Verkin sem verða til sýnis samanstanda af fjölda prenta sem eru klippt saman og nýta sér samtal teikningar, málverksins og grafík. Tungumálið er byggt upp af þessu samspili á yfirborðinu og gefa til kynna einhverskonar hreyfingu lífveru sem umbreytir landslaginu, eða kerfisbundinni formgerð þar sem hlutir fara út og inn úr tilverunni.

You are invited to the opening of Rhizome by artist in residence Jessica Tawczynski in Deiglan on Saturday November 25th at 2 – 5 pm. Also open on Sunday 2 – 5 pm.
The exhibition, Rhizome, highlights, artist Jessica Tawczynski’s interest in the philosophy of the Rhizome, presented by Deleuze and Guittari. The Rhizome is identified to be something like a root system or a map; something that cannot increase in number without changing in nature, a reality that is always transforming, stuck in a cycling present moment.
Tinkering with scientific and philosophical theory, and demonstrating the collaboration between academic and experiential knowledge, Tawczynski creates a visual language that implies an intuitive, transforming kind of logic.
Tawczynski’s exhibited work is made of multiple prints. Collaged together, they create and utilize the dialogue of drawing, painting, and print culture. This language is built of interactions across the surface, echoing the movement of a kind of organism, transforming landscape, or systematic structure in which things pop in and out of existence.
Rhizome, creates a performative reality, invoking a method of looking that intensifies periods of uncertainty. Ultimately, the work unfolds as an experimental investigation of the nature of things.
