Jemima Wyman & Zach Blas

Join artists Jemima Wyman and Zach Blas for their First Thursdays event Patterns-of-Life-Resistance, as they ask: How can we create and imagine patterns that engage resistance? Wyman and Blas invite you to collectivise and resist through patternmaking and camouflage, and use technology to explore what might be a visual pattern of resistance for today.

The evening begins with a lecture-performance that examines the landscape of resistance and surveillance patterns, as well as the relationship between patterns and protest movements. Wyman and Blas will use visual patternmaking generated by cutting-edge surveillance technologies and algorithms, through music, video and performance. This performance will end with a workshop where you can camouflage, resist, and evade surveillance with the artists.

This performance marks the beginning of Wyman and Blas’s IMA residency to develop new work for the exhibition Material Politics, 6 May–15 July.
