First Water to Tripoli

Emily Jones @ Jupiter Woods, Nov 23 – Nov 30

21 November 2014

Artist Emily Jones is bringing her latest solo exhibition, First Water to Tripoli, to London’s Jupiter Woods, where it will run from November 23 to November 30.

In lieu of a press release or exhibition descriptor, Jones has provided the following text:

will-to-possess
will-to-live
right to silence
man-made
manomaya
man-unmade
world as lover, world as self
God of the Eastern Sea
God of the Southern Sea
God of the Western Sea
God of the Northern Sea
biodiversity is us

On the Facebook exhibition page, she continues to post screenshots of existential phrases, things like ‘million-year timescale’ and ‘this term almost means existing within the cells’. No concrete information is given as to the nature of the show, but judging from Jones’s previous work, we should expect more of the same literary-meets-aesthetic hashtag philosophy that defines her oeuvre.

See the FB exhibition page for details. **
