Our insatiable desire to construct our environment and experience has resulted in a cataloguing of information and knowledge. Information so easily retrieved and consumed that it no longer functions as knowledge but rather as data. That is to say, what humankind has come to know is often severed from how we have come to know it.
As the individual parts and components of know edge are absorbed under a broader banner of facts, we surrender to what is known and spend less and less time enquiring about our world and our unique realities. It would seem that transference of knowledge impedes our capacity to analyse, which raises the question: can we inherit knowledge and have we shelved critical thought in favour of data and facts? De-compose proposes a model of learning through active decomposition and deconstruction of ideas; a process of unknowing.
Opening Hours: 10am to 4pm, Tuesday – Saturday
