Bookmarking a larger project that explores ways in which we come to know, suggestures among us (Interlude) exists as a moment compiled by ‘suggestures’, wherein inconspicuous encounters, looped socio-historical tangents, hazy familiarities and shallow depths ultimately ask, “what’s happening in a pause that we may have missed before?”
Through textual and sonic presences, prompts and questions, this exhibition has situated itself somewhere three-quarters of the way down of Buhlungu’s practice recently, the framework of “interludes” or “interluding” exists as time and space for rest, quietude (not so much sonic quietude, but a sensorial tranquillity) and thought, while also indicating that happenings present in the exhibition have occurred before and subsequently intend to trail onwards.
The project consists of the exhibition and the performance Our Friends Are Deeper Than We Thought (A Conver-Something) by Simnikiwe Buhlungu and Negiste Yesside Johnson on June 4th. This is Buhlungu's first exhibition and conver-something at the gallery.
