As Small As Eyes at Bloc Projects by Mariette Moor, Krystal Patel and Orsola Zane

A walk-through of the exhibition, 'As Small As Eyes' by Mariette Moor, Krystal Patel and Orsola Zane. A long-term research project by the artists in which they use the octopus as method and machine to develop both their collaborative and individual practices. The physical properties of cephalopods such as their elasticity, camouflage and complex neural functioning unsettle neat categorisations that we take for granted. By researching and attempting to inhabit (not depict) the way they think, feel and communicate, the trio reflect on their particular interests around consciousness, surface and touch, while reconsidering the way in which a collaborative artistic practice can function.
