Lineage for a Phantom Zone
Lineage for a Phantom Zone was commissioned to accompany a display of the same name by Sondra Perry, which first opened at Fondation Beyeler in 2022 and toured to Venice Biennale 'The Milk of Dreams,' Bridget Donahue gallery in NYC and is yet to open at Serpentine, London, to complete the tour. The publication was designed to make visible the influences and processes behind the project, including psychoanalysis, sci-fi and magical realism, and the work of other artists. The design of the publication, by Fieldwork Facility, reflected a myth about oranges which was central to the artwork.
Produced in collaboration with Fieldwork Facility and A Vibe Called Tech, independently published.
Time, Forward!
Time, Forward! is the catalogue for an exhibition at V-A-C Zattere (Venice) curated by Omar Kholeif in 2019. The exhibition explored the modes and functions of time, from the ancient to the digital, and how these relate to life in the 21st century. The book includes essays by eight international scholars, critics, poets, and filmmakers, probing issues as diverse as the role of sleep in a 24/7 society, the relevance of geologic time now, and artistic privacy and appropriation in cyberspace. Commentaries on the fifteen artist projects in the exhibition speculate on the future of the senses via a work by by Haroon Mirza, discuss an unorthodox history of modernity constructed by Walid Raad, and reflect upon a new science fiction film by Rosa Barba.
