‘The Abyss’ explores art that contends with the push and pull of seduction and repulsion. The artists in this exhibition employ strategies to generate schisms in the psyche: those moments where understanding is stalled, language fails, and chimeras are registered. In a time of turbulent politics and mediated messages, these artists destabilise and recombine images, forms, and bodies to offer critical perspectives and new ways of being. Their works question normative ideas and explore contemporary issues of race and identity by utilising historical grotesques and various visual strategies — from the horror vacui of elaborate surfaces, through the abject and informé, to the ornamental, erotic, and transgressive.
