The Adventures of You group exhibition at Paris’ The Community opened on December 3 and ran until January 13.

‘The Adventures of You’, (2016/17). Installation view. Courtesy the artists + The Community, Paris.

Curated by Paris-based collective The Community, the exhibition is a mix of sculpture, print, drawing clothes and audio exploring the individual’s ability to make and is structured through Ovid’s “Metamorphoses”. The epic poem starts from a paradise lost and through different metamorphoses ends up in an era in which despair and darkness reign with never-ending speculations about the future. The artworks in the exhibition address at the same time symbols of security and continuous threat, and get intertwined in the layout of the space, while mythologies join the contemporary discourse in its scenario.**
