Felix Melia presents solo exhibition Public Displays of Affection In The Waiting Room at Vienna’s Cordova and London’s Jupiter Woods opening May 27 and running to June 18.
Spread across two exhibition spaces simultaneously, the sound and video installation “centers on a dialogue depicting the dissolution of a long distance relationship.” the galleries become domestic spaces that accentuates the absence of the body and through distance as “pressure of language builds around strained efforts” of staying true.
Exploring the complexity of (mis)communication, ‘words hang in the air’ and gaps are given weight. ‘Disembodied voices’ find themselves among objects, surfaces and moments of waiting, and the body is dispersed in the drift of emotion.
