I'M FINE IF YOU'RE FINE
ARTROOM (LISBON)
29.09 - 02.10.2022
The title of this exhibition comes from a recent discovery about the concepts of care, empathy and friendship in a contemporary evaluation of the political, social and economic state of our world. While doing research, however, what I most found interesting (and distracting) about it were the potential aesthetic parallels with Theodore and Lisette’s exhibition, mainly the two present subjects (the you and the I) and the word fine. I tested its’ potential by analysing it through an ironic elasticity. By comparing the initial context to an everyday situation, the question became “how to return them to daily life?". The ambiguity of the short words and common vocabulary — I’m fine if you’re fine — perfectly matched the direction chosen for this exhibition.
