about

Fiona Annis exhibited "Outlines of Astronomy (the stars are dead but their light lives on)" at aceartinc. from 6 February - 6 March 2015.

In this exhibition, Annis reflects on the impulse to scavenge amongst obsolete technologies and to re-animate these dated apparatuses with the after-image of dead stars. In a dark exhibition space live data processing triggers countless lightbulbs to the rhythms of exploding supernova, and the sounds of stars being swallowed by black holes slowly erodes the slick surface of magnetic audiotape. The exhibition engages in the interpretation of specialist knowledge and the potential of repurposing archival stock.

Common threads in Annis’ work include the use of instructions, time-based media, and esoteric technologies. This is paired with an ongoing interest in how the past inhabits the present.
