Simian is pleased to announce two upcoming exhibitions: a group show organised by independent curator Fabian Flückiger in dialogue with Simian, and a solo exhibition by New York-based artist Moyra Davey.
Against a backdrop of global unrest and fading post-war promises of progress, prosperity, and peace, the group exhibition Emotional Terrains of Change turns its focus to how humans, as individuals and societies, navigate transformation. Drawing inspiration from the writings of Johannes V. Jensen and Octavia E. Butler, the exhibition proposes to consider change not only as inevitable, but also as a potentially powerful source of agency.
Engaged with forms of photography, filmmaking, and authorship, Moyra Davey’s practice is marked by an ardent, sustained inquiry – in particular towards the chronicles and contributions of fellow historical figures across these fields of creation – and a reflexive posture towards the artist’s own implication as a maker within these trajectories.

Simian præsenterer to kommende udstillinger: en gruppeudstilling organiseret af kurator Fabian Flückiger skabt i dialog med Simian og en soloudstilling med den New York-baserede kunstner Moyra Davey.
Set i lyset af global uro og falmende løfter om efterkrigstidens fremskridt, velstand og fred, retter gruppeudstillingen Emotional Terrains of Change fokus mod, hvordan mennesker som individer og samfund navigerer under forandringer. Med inspiration fra tekster af Johannes V. Jensen og Octavia E. Butler foreslår udstillingen, at forandringer ikke kun kan betragtes som uundgåelige, men også som en potentielt stærk kilde til handlekraft.
Engageret i forskellige former for fotografi, filmproduktion og forfatterskab, er Moyra Daveys praksis præget af en passioneret og vedvarende undersøgelse – særligt af fortællinger og bidrag fra historiske personer på tværs af det kreative felt – samt en reflekterende tilgang til kunstnerens egne implikationer som en skaber inden for disse områder.
