Night Slant

Debaser presents a night of art and music 

Night Slant is a group exhibition featuring works from 10 emerging artists (mostly!) from COFA - UNSW’s Art School. Curated by Monisha Kumar and Mei Lin Meyers. Night Slant (as a title) is a tongue in cheek mix up of ‘One Night Only!’, ‘Night Stand’ and ‘Slant’ via Sara Ahmed’s book Queer Phenomenology. 

This show brings together artists that work across sculpture, painting, printmaking, video and digital mediums. ‘Orientation’ (as understood by Ahmed) brings to mind the ways in which our embodied feeling and experiences pushes us toward or away from certain things, thus slant becomes a creative site for exploring our pathways, networks and connections. 

For One Night Slant Only (!!) we bring together a lot of slanty works, a slanty queering, AND show love to the stories, communities, and objects which hold us and that we hold in turn.
