18:00-18:30 PERFORMANCE (1) Palencar
Saturday 26 October 2024
Jo Blin
Jo Blin is an angry immigrant and a multidisciplinary artist currently based in Prague.
Her practice explores the absurdities within human-made systems through multiple media, from the repetition of her own slogans to the development of alter egos and entire fictitious organizations. The characters she creates are the devil’s advocates who help her try to make sense of the world. Often lost in pre-apocalyptic thoughts, her experiments, images and words go from bold statements to vain protests, unheard prayers, and powerlessness-infused self-portraits.
But don’t worry, she’s okay!
Palencar
Palencar is a Baltimore born artist currently based in London. They have recently relocated to London to attend the Royal College of art after living in Prague for the past 5 years and actively participated in the creative community of the city. They are largely inspired by historical methods of making and work to reconfigure them into a contemporary context through destruction and creation.
