Many Asians try to hide cultural clothing – now it's centre stage at an exhibition
By Angelica Silva

For many South Asians, museums in the West have historically been places where their cultures were displayed as static artefacts. An exhibition like The Offbeat Sari has flipped that script, presenting South Asian creativity as innovative and globally influential.

Many Asians try to hide cultural clothing – now it's centre stage at an exhibition

For many South Asians, museums in the West have historically been places where their cultures were displayed as static artefacts. An exhibition like The Offbeat Sari has flipped that script, presenting South Asian creativity as innovative and globally influential. 

Wie klingts eigentlich, wenn man alle zugleich reinhaut (Vierknopftypus per Fernbedienung)

Die interaktive Arbeit greift das Motiv von Kreuzigung und Wiederbelebung auf. Eine nachrüstbare Zentralverriegelung, jahrelang auf dem Dachboden des Künstlers gelagert, wird auf das Kreuz genommen: Über eine Fernbedienung können alle vier Knöpfe gleichzeitig ausgelöst werden.

Der Moment zwischen Stillstand und Aktivierung, zwischen Exitus und technischem Erwachen hat eine literarische Parallele zum Ausstellungsort Ingolstadt, damals eine katholische Glaubensfestung: In Mary Shelleys Roman Frankenstein bringt der Student Victor Frankenstein während seiner Zeit an der Universität Ingolstadt mit Hilfe von Elektrizität eine Kreatur zum Leben.

Zwischen Kreuzigung und künstlicher Belebung verhandelt die Arbeit Fragen von Handlungsmacht, Kontrolle und der Aktualisierung sakraler Motive durch Technologie.

Die Arbeit war Teil der Ausstellung Endrohr Apokalypse im Kunstverein Ingolstadt (22. Nov 2025 – 21. Jan 2026).

#introduction
Hi this is Cookie! I have worked as a technician in various art studios and #makerspaces for the past ten years. For longer than that I have made art and music. I have also done a lot of work in #ArtEducation including performative workshops. I run an Open Source #ComputerClub at u of toronto.

Currently I am working on a #webart project called “Exodus Big Techius: Root to leaving Google/Apple/Microsoft for the Collective Open Source”. My other current focus is prepping for #OHS2026 where I will be exhibiting a sound #sculpture and a new art book.

For fun, I'm very into #knitting and am a member of the local spinner and weavers guild. I love hiking and native pollinator gardening. I am planning to learn #bikepacking and the bass clarinet this summer. I love anachronisms, synchronicities, and #esoterica. I wonder about becoming a shepherd or lighthouse keeper.

Here's a photo of something swampy I knit that I feel speaks to my personality :)

Работа сопровождалась бессмысленным высокопарным текстом о центре Земли, слоистости, и неповторяющихся циклах.
