Situations for Collaborative work part 4, Gathenhielmska huset
Sammanfattning
MASU + DOMA
In the fall of 2019, we received a grant from Göteborgs Slödjförening to make a publication about our artistic practice. In June 2020 we commissioned design and curator group DOMA (Ida Sondell, Fanny Lindh and Sofia Florell) to take on our work from 2012 - June 2020 and for it to result in an exhibition (Göteborgs Kulturnatta 2020) at Gathenhielmska Huset and a publication.
We packed and collected all our projects, publications, objects, drawings, sculptures, recordings and images and handed to DOMA for them to use, interpret, arrange and display however they wanted.
During the fall of 2020 they worked in secret with the material aiming for the exhibition in October.
Due to Covid the exhibition was cancelled and together we decided on a new date and format where they would set up the work and invite only MASU + two special guests for a two day viewing and discussion about what they had found in the material, what they see / don’t see in our work and what they highlight as our practice.
On November 28 MASU + DOMA presented this work and its winding process at a zoom OhiO Wednesday at HDK-Valand.
The two-day exhibition and conversation with DOMA + MASU and invited guests Henrik Sputnes, freelancing curator and Petra Johansson Artistic leader and head of Art Inside Out, Halland drifted in and out of our work, process and material as well as thoughts on what is an exhibition, what is a contemporary art practice and how we navigate the new spaces of artistic experience.
DOMA also presented the publication final draft which will be proof read and sent to print in the last weeks of 2020.
The possibility of working with DOMA for this project has given us valuable insight into our process and how to continue our work. We talked a lot about how MASU can create a space to with focus for drawings and outdoor sculptural work and how to make relevant decisions on what projects to take on, be a part of or look for.
Seeing our work displayed by someone who has no darlings in the material, who is not fund of certain pieces or know the stories that they hold was truly liberating.
The publication is planned to launch at Gallery BOX in January 2021
