SM considers translation processes.
From this to _____.
Iconoclast to Meme-lover.
Body to image. Image to screen plus text.
Then to icon and back to body.
Works will present a range of strategies situated in relation to screen cultures, image production and circulation. Some artists work within the picture plane, some explode it. Bodies are flattened, embedded, dis-embedded, sometimes overwritten. Space is compressed in tight layers and text reduced to snips, clips, and blurbs.
