Step 3. ???? at Plicnik Space Initiative
This Halloween season, I've been thinking about how deeply anachronistic it is to even consider summoning evil spirits. Perhaps it is my Catholic upbringing talking, but every time I walk past a house adorned with iconography of the underworld, I shudder. Mortal, human evil is all around, and we are deeply aware of its existence in our world. Some of the evil is mundane, small, a brick in the wall of that which breaks us down as individuals before breaking down our communities and our environments. Many of us fight this evil in different ways, and in parallel, many would rather tell the conscious to stop crushing the good vibes, stop being a killjoy. The latter group are also guilty of reading and watching (but not absorbing) the horrors of the year before coming to 31 December and posting that this year was the best of their lives. The evils lurking beyond the visible are a point of departure for the group exhibition 'Step 3. ????' at Plicnik Space Initiative in Deptford....
