HEAVY WEATHER’s origin is a reading group convened in September 2017 by artist Emma McKeagney, to consider New Materialism in its implications for art practices.
Generous explorations of materiality as an enigmatic potential, reworking of human relations with entities and agencies, and spectres of environmental collapse, have intrinsically or tangentially informed the practices – and affect the artists – collected here.
Deriving from the 1977 album by fusion group Weather Report, HEAVY WEATHER is a provisional encounter of disparates, forced by contemporary exigencies. It is a settled but uncertain address, a dose of talk about the weather.
