The Infinite Mix

Soulful and audacious in their exploration of a wide range of subjects, the work in The Infinite Mix addressed tumultuous histories and cultural tensions in ways that were thought-provoking as well as deeply entertaining. They also pointedly remixed notions of history and fiction, the real and the staged, and the sublime and the everyday.

Drawing on varied genres including documentary filmmaking, music video, experimental film and theatrical performance, these artworks dispensed with straightforward storytelling and unfolded in a manner akin to musical compositions. Together, they expanded the ways in which we experience moving images and sound, and opened up new veins of meaning in art’s potentially ‘infinite mix.’

The Infinite Mix exhibition was presented in association with The Vinyl Factory.
