The body of work showing in the Confluentés Sea emerged out of an engagement
with the senses of touch, the haptic and 'smooth space'. Touch is
the most tangible
of our senses. We rely on it to calibrate what we see and
hear. Despite this an
exorbitant privileging of sight has developed within
Western thought and knowledge
that has "actively forgotten and deliberately
written touch out of our cultural history".
This exhibition introduces a major
body of work by Tim Mosely that initiates
a re/membering of touch. It is the
first in a series of three exhibitions that presents
artwork he has produced
during his PhD candidature.
