It Doesn’t Seem of the Body at All is an aspiration of all things of the bodies. Body of earth, body of work, body of water. Writing with the body, sounding with the body, sighting with the body.
A multidisciplinary exhibition/installation comprising photographs, video, live performance, sound, and public participation.
ARTISTS
Jazmine Rose Phillips is a performance artist, sound designer, and musician. They seek to embrace the grit and beauty of the human experience. Their creations use pleasure, pain, sound, spoken word, film, ritual, and the body to evoke and embody transparency and healing, often motivated by the destruction we all take part in as humans. Jazmine performs under the moniker Jazmine Mary. They won the best independent Debut Award for their album in 2022 and have toured their music internationally. They have performed in galleries across Aotearoa as well as India, Australia, China, France, and Thailand.
Antonia Barnett McIntosh is a composer-performer, sound artist, editor, and curator. She has collaborated extensively with musicians, theatre and filmmakers, dancers, visual artists, and poets. Antonia’s works gently tap at the borders of speech and music, performance and rehearsal, composition and writing, juxtaposing the formalities of presentation and the aesthetics of failure. Antonia’s music has been performed in Europe, the UK, Scandinavia, the US, Australia, and Aotearoa.
