Breaching Experiments
Pilvi Takala
14 September – 10 November 2012
Preview Thursday 13 September 6 – 8pm
Performance 3 November 2012
Over the past decade, Finnish artist Pilvi Takala has developed a critical body of singular performance pieces, unpicking those conventions created within micro-social environments.
Breaching Experiments brings together several of Takala’s recent film based works as well as two performances to take place during the exhibition. Her films are often filmed covertly, capturing and observing or in some cases re-enacting seemingly bizarre social situations. Awkward, provoking, uncompromising and at times unbearably embarrassing, Takala exposes the unspoken rules of society and draws intrinsic conditions to the surface.
