Studio Visit: Shay Arick

“Landscape might be seen more profitably as something like the ‘dreamwork’ of imperialism, unfolding its own movement in time and space from a central point of origin and folding back on itself to disclose both utopian fantasies of the perfected imperial prospect and fractured images of unresolved ambivalence and unsuppressed resistance.”   - WJT Mitchell, Landscape and Power

Art in Odd Places

According to their website, “Art in Odd Places aims to stretch the boundaries of communication in the public realm by presenting artworks in all disciplines outside the confines of traditional public space regulations.”

In 2005, Ed Woodham and a group of artists wanted to respond to the dwindling of public space and personal civil liberties. They started in the Lower east Side and East Village, parading the streets with art. In 2008, they added an annual festival along 14th street in Manhattan.

AGENCY. SELF. STATUS. OTHER. IMAGE. GENDER. MEMORY. HEALTH. POLITICS. SEX. DEATH. AGE. ABSENCE. BEAUTY. VISCERA. EXCLUSION. LANGUAGE. BELONGING.

The above are the words curator, Katya Grokhovsky, uses to describe her next year’s group exhibition, Art in Odd Places 2018: BODY. The exhibition will be composed of projects by women, female identifying and non-binary artists along 14th Street, NY October 11-14, 2018.

Katya fascinated me once I started looking into her more. AiOP linked to an interview with Katya and the ArtSlant Team titled KATYA GROKHOVSKY ANSWERS 5 QUESTIONS. Below are the questions and a summary of her answers:

1. What are you trying to communicate with your work?

The often invisible, absurd, grotesque, and difficult aspects of human experience as it pertains specifically to a female immigrant person.

2. What is an artist’s responsibility?

To question the way the world functions, in all of its aspects. To be fully aware and awake, to listen, look, analyze and critique, to push the limits and boundaries of yourself and your audience.

3. Show us the greatest thing you ever made (art or not)?

Bad Woman (pictured below) is my greatest work to date. Filmed on location in my parents’ backyard in Melbourne, Australia, where we first migrated to from Ukraine in the 90s.

4. Tell us about a work you want to make but never will.

The work I want to make will dismantle the patriarchy and rebuild the world. I may never make this in my lifetime or many lifetimes after this one, but I will smash the failing system with my art—or die trying.

5. Who are three artists we should know but probably don't?

Shay Arick, an artist from Israel, living in New York, who works critiques ideas of masculinity and social taboos.

Deborah Castillo, a Venezuelan artist, based in Brooklyn, who dissects ideas of patriarchal power through performance, video, and sculpture.

Kate Power, an artist and writer, based in Adelaide, Australia, who deconstructs social human relations and dynamics.

My work tends to surprise and haunt me all the time and I am in constant dialogue with myself and the universe through it. - Katya Grokhovsky

After reading more about Katya, I am very interested to see what kind of show she curates for Art in Odd Places in 2018. I expect it to be outrageous, controversial, and odd. I expect it to be awesome. I will be in New York by the time this exhibition will be in action. I will definitely be checking it out.
