The World as a futuristic re-imagination, existing in Time and Zones that Spring from and Move in Breath. It was a Roadside Picnic is a VR and browser-based futuristic world existing in Time and Zones where horizons shift and universes overlay each other. A hauntingly beautiful vision of the future, with golden sands that sing, a sky with two suns and rocks of turmeric, a new shoal washes over—it is our place, a future inhabited by people—breathing. Artists born in countries such as Somalia, South Korea, India, and Wales imbue the virtual world with memories of the pre-humanist rituals, in a collective endeavour that maps the way towards a fluid post-humanism—Beyond Black Orientalism. This desert world is from the imaginary of Salma Noor (SO) joined by Megan Broadmeadow (WLS/UK), Brandon Covington Sam-Sumana (USA), Nicholas Delap (ENG/UK), Ben Hall (ENG/SCO), Aliyah Hussain (UK) Nayu Kim (KOR), curated by Kinnari Saraiya (IND). Supported by Indian breath specialist and neurologist Dr. Ash Ranpura (IND/UK) and producer Helen Starr (TT). Curator: Kinnari Saraiya |
