TRANSITION COLLECTIVE presents… ‘Stimuli’

Poster created by Vibe gallery. ‘Florescence’ by Ryan Dunn.

To celebrate their new online arts and culture magazine ‘Vibe Press’, Vibe Gallery are collaborating with TRANSITION COLLECTIVE to bring you ‘Stimuli’ – things to excite the senses and sensory deprivation hallucinations.The unity of separate entities through sensation real or imagined, and the manipulation of perception and memory.

The impetus – to exist, to explore, to consume, to play, to transform, to destroy, to nurture, to disorientate. Strange new worlds, the detachment and revelation created inside a void.

A pared back exploration of emotional and emotionless life, and the formation and storage of memories. Fear conditioning, sensory stimuli reaching out to associate.

The collective take on alien siphonophoric flesh and internal light, each art zooid is an individual, but their integration attains the character of a larger organism. Reach in. Feel the sting.

Stimulate to unite to excite to fight to remember.

A development from last January’s exhibition Con:FRONT. Journeys, achievements, inspirations from then to now, bite narrative flashes.

From the confrontation to the transcendence. Peaks of emotion, orgasmic limbo, trapped nerves, phobic crescendo, the excess of success, burst barriers held before you in glorious stopped motion. Celebrate the high, the adrenalin, the gut reaction, moments of triumph captured and distorted.

From birth, to bloom, to animal experience, to discovery, intellectual exploration and expansion, mental and physical exertion, euphoria.

Rock n Roll Zoo @ Vibe Gallery PV 23rd August  Live music night 24th August featuring Aven Zirself + Wei Lou from 8pm Introverts from 9pm Open 24th August – 2nd September A new exhibition. In the trail blaze of the Olympics, TC presents an alternative exploration of the spectator and the spectated. Metal bars, metal hearts. The stage, the cage. Icons and swooners. Looking in, looking out. Break free, break loose, break out. The explicit and the censored. Wild, fierce, primitive, waiting, watching. The performance, the captivity. The prisoner, the keeper. The hunter and the hunted. Persecution, rebellion. Yearning, dreaming, living. Uniform, frippery, trappings, regalia, warpaint. Hoops, stunts, showdowns. Beauty, mortality, broken mirrors. Traditional roleplay, modern life. The expectation, the anticlimax. Control, submission, freedom. The beast within, mass consumerism, mutation. Branding, subculture, the fall of man.

TRANSITION COLLECTIVE presents…INTERIOR HYSTERIA

Interior Hysteria explores ripples of unmanageable emotional excesses. A sliding scale of loss of self-control behind closed doors. Overwhelming internal conflict through visual brain patterns. Dysmorphia. Hypochondria. Neurosis. Lightness and dryness of the body. Paralysis. Disassociation. Waves of panic.

Greek physicians of the fourth century B.C. thought hysteria was caused by migrations of a restless uterus, or ‘wandering womb’. This concept is attributed to Hippocrates, despite the fact that it never appears in any of the Hippocratic texts.

Hippocratic authors manifest a distinct break with magic and religion. They claim that hysteria may result from prolonged sexual continence, an opinion which was to influence medical history for over two thousand years.

Join our hysterical creatures for a month of Interior Hysteria. Secrets, recesses, hollows, obsessions, sanctuary, constructed decay, personal castles… Let there be light.

Private view from 6pm 24th May

Jessica Kilpatrick @ Seven

Friday 6th April – Sunday 6th May

Through her experiments in photography and light, Jessica Kilpatrick explores the human face to present the cool and heat of otherworldliness. Spectral, luminous and lonely creatures from a deep sea dream. Psychedelic intimacy, provoking feelings of the bizarre and the unknown. Glowing and distorted negatives, duplicating features, creating movement, swimming in rich dream-glo colours. A soaring sense of anxious energy flowing into the release from a trap of strange fantasies…
