The exhibition brings together the works of six artists whose layered works essay an inter-generational conversation about cunning contaminants and mutinous materialities that trick us into giddier spirals of consumption / transmutation. Each artist stages an encounter with non-human actants - plankton, animals, plants - that are caught up in a helpless becoming at the hands of man. Ranging from melancholic to monstrous, these becomings herald dystopias to come - landscapes bent out of shape and grown allergic to our existence as a species. Speculative or documentary, the works are rooted within urban environments that the artists came to inhabit, exposing these seemingly civilized spaces as nested sites of multi-species cohabitation and conflict. Seduced into an inhospitable territory, the viewer is fixed and surveyed by a gaze that is utterly alien. The other's abysmal gaze - impenetrable as it is unforgiving - demands accountability and pronounces judgement.
