Pop music, sculpture, digital image and video mix collage manipulation are combined to express a political consciousness traversing the universe on a quest for adventure. This culminated with a show in March Alembic is a programme of three intergenerational duo exhibitions, a publication, events and online commission.
These new commissions are exhibited alongside significant historical works by artists Faith Wilding and Shu Lea Cheang brought to the UK for the first time, forming a scope of works spanning from to the contemporary.
Alembic celebrates the shared affinity across these generations, where the continual critique and transformation of the political biases of networked communication is practiced through multiple feminisms and strategies of queering technology. Unfolding how the materiality of the body recognising agency and affect beyond the human becomes a site for digital and alchemical transmutation, Alembic takes its name from a form of alchemical beaker[2]. The process of distilling chemicals between two beakers connected by a tube, mirrors the pipelines of digital communication technology, where transmission of data constitutes an abstraction.
Considering the body as alchemical vessel, it contains the processes of mutation: The largest satellite in proportion to the planet around which it revolves in our entire solar system, the moon actually has us living upon a bi-planetary system according to modern astronomy, a science owing its existence to astrology, the older system from which it stems.

The distillery of souls
Occurring every twenty-eight days the moon is most responsible for the seven day week by which we mark time , the full moon is perceived as making human beings go crazy to the point of lunacy. Luna was what the moon was called in Latin by ancient Romans and they coined the word lunacy to describe the temporary insanity manifested during the full moon, a phenomena we continue to recognize today. Why does the moon have such an effect on humanity? The answer is really quite simple: When the moon is full it is reflecting the maximum amount of the sun's light at us when it is usually dark.
Alembic II: Chrominance – Res.
Everyone would agree that the sun's light is compelling us to be active during the day and be restive at night when the light fades. Actually, we, rather than the moon, are responsible for our lunacy. What we choose to do with its energy determines our behaviors. Rather than automatically cruise a bar at the next full moon, why not consider using its reflective power towards consciously improving the inner life. After all, have you ever thought the moon is simply telling us that such energy should be geared to inner, rather than outer, activity?
The Weird In Review
In the midst of solitude, one finds astonishing clarity. Solitude makes us plunge into the unfathomable depths of conciousness, leaving us with a sense of harmonious plenitude. In summary, the moon is telling us to balance our outside activity with our inner activity, or if you prefer, our inner growth. How to work with the moon in our daily life How might we best put to use the energy of the moon? If we align our inner development to coincide with its phases, we will discover our reflective insights are most keen at the full of the moon.
