Conversation: Proximity Music, States of Fragility

with Andrius Arutiunian, Sophia Bulgakova, Yannik Güldner, Nandita Kumar, Henk Schut, moderated by Ceola Tunstall-Behrens

Proximity Music is a joint exhibition programme initiated in 2021 by iii and Rewire, which seeks to connect music, architecture, technology, ritual, and play through spatial experiences engaging with all the senses across various locations in The Hague. This year's edition Proximity Music: States of Fragility presents a series of works set against the backdrop of unsustainable and often fragile social, political, and ecological systems: from a disturbed ecological balance to ongoing wars and geopolitical tensions. Through the lens of personal, creative, and sometimes unorthodox approaches, artists develop instruments to explore different forms of human and more-than-human knowledge. They invite the audience to establish new relationships with their immediate surroundings, other geographies, and complex ecologies. The works foreground fragility as something to be attentive to, while emphasising the need to listen closely to shared and shifting environments. The exhibition features work by Andrius Arutiunian, Louis Braddock Clarke, Sophia Bulgakova, Marco Fusinato, Nandita Kumar, Pelle Schilling, Henk Schut, Myra-Ida Van der Veen, and Jeanine Verloop. 

Join the opening conversation with artists Andrius Arutiunian, Nandita Kumar, Henk Schut, Sophia Bulgakova, and curator Yannik Güldner (iii). The talk will be moderated by Ceola Tunstall-Behrens.
