(50.8 x 40.64 cm.) Tern gallery, Nassau, Bahamas&nbsp; &nbsp;September 20 - November 4, 2023 Installation Photography: Blair J. Meadows“Evidence of Possibility” is a two-person exhibition by regional artists, Mark King and Rodell Warner. Mark King is a Barbadian interdisciplinary artist working in photography, installation, fashion, and sculpture, and Rodell Warner is a Trinidadian artist working primarily in new media and photography, whose works assume various forms in a process of exploration and rediscovery. Together, King and Warner present the “evidence of possibility”, pushing each other past the boundaries of their respective practices at the intersection of fine art, research, and technology. This exhibition features AI-generated images on aluminum, ceramic sculptures, and textiles. King and Warner both view this exhibition as a “presentation of a plethora.” Collaborating through the exchanging of ideas and notes, both artists engage technology at its most advanced state and its rudimentary form to convey the relationship between humanity, innovation, and process. This exhibition–which can be seen as the contemporary descendant of the classical “Wunderkammer”–is a manifestation of curiosity, play, and new ways of archive-making. For this exhibition, his second at TERN gallery, Warner collaborated with AI software to create a fictitious archive of an alternative history of the Caribbean. He posed the central question: “What if?” and allowed this to lead him into a technologically-imagined space. What if persons from the African diaspora came by their own will to the Caribbean, co-existed with the Indigenous people, and all benefited from the land and grew in wealth? How would this alternative history be visualized in the contemporary archive? Warner shared, “What would their lives look like? So I started imagining, instead of the clothes that you usually see them wearing in extant historical records, what could or would their fashion look like?” He prompted the software “to generate suits and dresses, headdresses and jewelry” for these people with materials that he believed would be found in their immediate environment. These amalgamations of landscapes, environments, and people become grotesque yet beautiful possibilities that have been rendered onto small 5 x 5-inch aluminum plates. The audience can also expect to see more iterations of Warner’s video prints from his new series, “Terraria,” which are encased plant life found in the regional terrain. “Evidence of Possibility” is Mark King’s first exhibition with TERN. No stranger to the Bahamian art scene–having spent formative childhood years here, where he maintained personal ties–he will exhibit a variety of works “to encourage dialogue around the relationship between everyday artifacts and humanity. The coded works in this exhibition center themes of migration, fractal geometry, and provenance.” King asks us to consider the interconnectivity of design, artifacts and space. He also asks us to rethink what we deem as disparate and to look closer at how “design objects helps us understand the world around us.” The German stork is a recurring motif as a symbol of our relationship to the surrounding environment and how that informs our extended cognition. While there should not be a link between Barbados Sea Island cotton, binoculars, and fractal tiles, King presents these junctions in the form of ceramic sculptures, “wearable art” and textile-based forms that explore how the natural world informs design and how, in turn, design informs our own movement through the world. This exhibition is a product of an ongoing dialogue between King and Warner and their admiration for each other’s practice. - terngallery.com https://markkingismarkings.com/Look-on-me-and-be-renewed

Mark King at Science Gallery London. Insatallation Photography: Thierry Bal Activity Workshop Photography: Chiara Dalla Rosa &nbsp; Look on me and be renewed (2018) by Mark King in collaboration with Dr John Marsden and Changing 7Garment tailoring by Bregje Cox and Shinkai Raza This multi-faceted artwork was presented in the 'Free Will' section of HOOKED at Science Gallery London and on the ground floor of the building as a site-specific installation. Over the four-month duration of the exhibition&nbsp; digital manifestations of the project were created by the artist and presented on Instagram. Look on me and be renewed invites us to reflect on the interplay between human beings, objects and environments, highlighting how visual prompts from our surroundings are connected to the behavioural patterns and rhythms that govern or determine our decisions and experiences. Devised by artist Mark King in collaboration with Dr John Marsden, Professor of Addiction Psychology at King’s College London and Changing 7, a group of people with lived experience of treatment and recovery from substance use, Look on me and be renewed was developed through a series of process-led workshops where the group explored the presence of visible and invisible patterns in our daily lives. The workshop sessions included garment customization, a photography field day in London Bridge and an analysis session that considered the cognitive impact of the built environment. The methodology behind Look on me and be renewed comes from a clinical approach used by Dr Marsden that enables his patients to gain better control over their cravings and desires by identifying visual triggers in their local environment. Mirroring Dr Marsden’s approach, each member of Changing 7 photographed the London Bridge area using disposable cameras, limited to only 27 film exposures. From those photographs, Mark King has extracted and reconfigured specific shapes and colours to create a series of vibrant patterns that are infused with a memory of the places or objects that inspired them. By reintroducing these site-specific patterns across the gallery, the public realm and digital domain, the artwork amplifies the repetitive interplay between people and their surroundings. In the digital domain, King invites local, national and international audiences to engage with the project by taking photographs of their own surroundings and adding them to an expanding archive on Instagram with #lomabr. From the uploaded images the artist will create a limited series of bespoke patterns that will be posted to @L_O_M_A_B_R throughout the course of the exhibition.

Chaka Welch *Reversible kimono made in collaboration with visual artist Llanor Alleyne (images 18 &amp; 20) Enclothed Cognition is a collaborative project from visual artist Mark King and Dutch designer Bregje Cox. The collection is inspired by the behavioral psychological theory of Enclothed Cognition. Particularly how a garment’s symbolic meaning paired with the physical experience of wearing the garment combines to impact the wearer’s performance in everyday tasks. Enclothed Cognition is informed by King and Cox’s shared interests in science fiction, functional clothing, architecture, neuroscience, and future technologies. Enclothed Cognition seeks to empower others by bringing awareness to the interplay between the clothes we wear, the built environment, and the human mind. By incorporating workwear, formalwear, military wear and traditional garments, the collection not only leverages the inherent durability and functionality of these pieces, but also taps into their respective cognitive attributes. The collection features a wide range of layerable pieces that fit many contexts. Its bold surface patterns are encoded with references to the built environment be it real world or digital.&nbsp; “ELSEWHERE” by filmmaker/choreographer, Tori Lawrence, is a stunning experimental film that features bespoke Enclothed Cognition garments. The collaboration between Tori Lawrence + Co. and Enclothed Cognition spans multiple films and live performances. Tori and I met as artists in residence at Yaddo in the fall/winter of 2018. I hoped we could collaborate someday from the moment she screened her films during an open studio. I kept it to myself (and Bregje) but thankfully Tori reached out months later and the rest is history. Tori Lawrence + Co. creates immersive site-specific dances, interdisciplinary performance installations, and dance films that explore the space between media and the relationship between body and environment. It is this shared interest in the relationship between body and the built environment that has laid the foundation for our evolving collaboration. The activation of our garments and their respective surroundings through dance and film has revealed expansive worlds of possibilities.

My contribution to the Glasgow 2014 Culture Programme was a site-specific work made possible by the access provided by technology. Through virtual and interactive maps I embarked upon an exercise in wayfinding from a computer thousands of miles away in Barbados. Through mechanisms such as Google Maps I selected forms present in the architecture and manipulated them to create artworks that drew upon the location where my work was to be presented. I chose chalk as my medium due to its ephemeral qualities. The resulting artwork was temporary much like the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Spectators from across the globe came into direct contact with the piece, with chalk from the artwork sticking to their shoes and hitching a ride to the neighboring sports venues. The combination of the elements and foot traffic slowly ate away at the pigment and ultimately returned the site to a state prior to my intervention.Photographs by Rayanne Bushell https://markkingismarkings.com/Empathic-Loops-Ode-to-the-Widow-s-Walk Sat, 29 Dec 2018 18:49:18 +0000 markkingismarkings https://markkingismarkings.com/Empathic-Loops-Ode-to-the-Widow-s-Walk <img width="600" height="840" width_o="600" height_o="840" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/14aad70941889e91a65d6dca160f5dbfddc7b18bb01893fa28f2aa278fc3c7e3/mark-king_empathic-loops-or-ode-to-the-widow-s-walk.png" data-mid="31469161" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/14aad70941889e91a65d6dca160f5dbfddc7b18bb01893fa28f2aa278fc3c7e3/mark-king_empathic-loops-or-ode-to-the-widow-s-walk.png" /> Empathic Loops/Ode to the Widow’s Walk, 2018 Archival inkjet print 16 x 22.4 in.
