We Are All Exquisite Corpses // a mishmash of borrowed parts, jury rigged together, a patchwork of scraps made of borrowed gestures, and quiet inheritances. Golems, Homunculi, Frankenstein’s monsters in everyday disguise.

Artist Life.or.Seath and Terraform Studio Artists invite you to our version of a children’s collaborative drawing game, where strange and wondrous beings emerge from mismatched contributions. A commentary of the tension that exists between grotesque and playful, eerie and comical, laughter in the darkness.

Clay carries the same type of magic. A handmade vessel awakens, warming from coffee or soup, breathing in your hands. A quiet awe of holding something both object and companion. The Little Guys are alive and dancing, can you see them?

The Little Guys are distilled moments of that commentary. Visual echoes of stories, souls worn on the outside, fragments of human connection that animate us. Sometimes they tell stories and sometimes you are simply asked to feel. These figures are phantoms, wisps, lights & shadow, designed to fascinate, to capture your attention and force you to assign an inner meaning.

They are playful, simplistic, imperfect souls brimming with awkwardness and yet they speak of what we all are – Exquisite Corpses.

Located at Terraform Studio on Smart Street Mall, this exhibition will run from the 11th of October – 31st of October.
