Christine Welsh, Tommy Ting, Thomas Kneubühler, and Dong-Kyoon Nam at Open Space

Work‘PLACE’, a group exhibition featuring Christine Welsh, Tommy Ting, Thomas Kneubühler, and Dong-Kyoon Nam, opens Friday, September 19, 2014. In this exhibition, the artists utilize a variety of strategies to interrogate the rapidly transforming definitions of “work.”

In our increasingly globalized economy everything from manual production to information management contributes to new understandings of labour.

What are the societal and economic ramifications of an economy that may no longer be rooted in a physical geography but in an intangible and sleepless network of digital information?
Each artist explores how the fluctuations of these working realities influence our identities and shifting subjectivities.

Join the artists September 19 and 20, in a visual contemplation that is elegant, unnerving, and monumental.
