Exhibition: Dwelling Under Distant Suns

Dwelling Under Distant Suns originates from the struggle to represent an increasingly precarious landscape of slow violence that occurs out of place and out of sight. In the exhibition, methods of myth-making and speculation underpin the filmic apparatuses of Alvin Luong, Solveig Qu Suess, and Kent Chan. Through their works, heat, water and agricultural lands entangle with human movements on the ground, serving as channels of inquiry into a heterogenous environmental and geopolitical past, present and future.

Curated by Master of Visual Studies in Curatorial Studies graduate student Yantong Li, the exhibition addresses environmental precarity by highlighting the struggle to make visible our increasingly unpredictable landscape.
