COS•MO
2013
COS•MO stands for Constant Self-recording Mode, a sentence devised to describe a process that by now sees the world looking at itself existing in real time through 24 hour news channels and social media.
A concept/workshop group exhibition curated by Gilles Massot, in collaboration with Akira Takahashi, Allysa Sing Zhi Bing, Andreas Schlegel, Benjamin Ziggy Lee, Bradley Foisset, Bureau One (collective), Carrie Lam, Charles Lim, Filip Gudovic, Guillaume Leclercq, Isabelle Desjeux, Jacqueline Sim, Jasper Yu, Kee Ya Ting, Kevin Tan Bo Xi, Kim Ji-Yoon, Koh Nguang How, Leonard Yang, Lim Shengen, Marcel Gaspar, Nel Lim, Nicolas Ledoux, Rubin Hashim, Ryf Zaini, Shaun-Joel Liew, Tan Chee Hon, Teow Yue Han, Urich Lau, Vanessa Ban.
This workshop exhibition-event gathers works of all sorts, visual, written and sonic, dealing with the theme of the Constant Self-recording Mode in literal or metaphoric ways. In all these works, as in the life many of us live today, the cut and paste method plays a paramount role. Through the ‘self’ of the individuals, the ‘self’ of the World looks at itself emerging in a way unlike anything that has existed before, resulting in a society in which “To cut or not to paste” has become “the Question”.
