During her residency at the Open Studio, the young multimedia artist developed the Cyclone Cynthia project, which began as a commentary on helplessness and its connection to the forecasts of hypothetical cyclones that provide people with a feeling of a controlled future. The banality of everyday life and contemporary anxiety replace fear with fascination and a desire for disaster, and thereby the attention the latter brings.
The opening will be accompanied by a guided viewing of the exhibition by the artist.
