Aggregate

This July 29, Aggregate opens, developed by Marina Kassianidou. The project takes the form of a site-specific response looking into Sic. Contemporary Culture’s space as an architectural and social object, activating a sense of place and possibility through the acts of looking, marking, shifting, drawing, dust gathering and printmaking.

Kassianidou practices a sustained and sustainable mediation that collapses the poles of being-in-relation-to and being-in-resistance-to, turning them into visible, painstakingly crafted demarcations in which the infinitesimal becomes a matter of positioning: of where and how one stands.

The Aggregate process takes the diamond shape of the space as a found horizontal and vertical axis, and the terrazzo tile on which they meet as an inexhaustible surface upon which the two meanings of aggregate converge: both as inorganic materials that are held together by a binding agent and as collective gathering.

The Limassol-born artist lives and works between Limassol and Boulder, Colorado, USA. Her work has been exhibited internationally at spaces such as NiMAC (Nicosia, Cyprus), Thkio Ppalies (Nicosia, Cyprus), NARS Foundation (Brooklyn, New York, USA), Ten
