With Visitations, an in-process and performance exhibition, Curator AN Soubiran brings three artist-researchers and their processes to the three FOFA Gallery spaces.

The exhibition presents Matthew-Robin Nye, Jacinthe Loranger, and Laura Acosta, and intends to unveil a cumulative process-based collaboration. Over the course of a six-week in-gallery residency accessible to the public, a series of interventions and creative methodologies will attempt to alter the Gallery space. The project will feature time-based media, scheduled and spontaneous interventions, collaborative workshops, and lectures from local and international artists and thinkers.

Visitations explores real versus virtual ways of representing a series of visitations between the artists and participants. All three artists will engage in a conversation about architecture, landscaping and storytelling by means of their own practices, actions and political interventions. These artists will come together to examine notions of 'place' to ultimately determine what constitutes a place and what sort of spaces can emerge.
