AUTOPILOT
February 3 - 13, 2022
Group Show at Inselgalerie
Link to the gallery's page
In times of collective narcissism, of over-saturation and simultaneous emptiness, the return back to one's inner power center seems more necessary than ever. The autopilot, already an archetype of our society, is an ambivalent energy. It gives us security in situations in which we humans must act immediately, because it functions without reflection or emotion. But it also seduces us into inertia, into abdicating responsibility and acting as everyone does, supposedly playing it safe. The autopilot is the mechanism that either saves us or kills us, a blessing and a curse, the force that every human being has to deal with if we don't want to be merely blown through our fast passing lives.
In this exhibition, I present my new works "Focus" and "Retune", and also perform "Chest of Mirrors" on 12.02.

ALONENESS
September 30 - October 3, 2021
Solo Show at Flutgraben Art Space
ALONENESS - An interactive exhibit of multi-sensory installations by Kia Kali and Alex Kaos
Aloneness is an immersive art experience that explores the connection we cultivate with ourselves in solitude, the shimmering golden light that only we can cast over ourselves.
“Loneliness is the absence of the other.
Aloneness is the presence of oneself.”
What does it mean to be alone? How is it different from being lonely? How have we connected with this topic in the last 18 months of pandemic outbreaks and lockdowns? How did our restricted social lives and cultural experiences affect our relationship with ourselves?
Aloneness is a debut immersive art exhibit of the duo Kia Kali and Alex Cuthbertson that explores the relationship we cultivate with ourselves in solitude. Multiple installation spaces invite visitors to experience a different aspect of this topic, offering contained spaces to breathe, think your thoughts and feel your feelings while blurring the view of others and sharpening your inner connection.
You are invited to travel through different atmospheres and take space to sense and reflect upon what aloneness means to you. Through sound, light, touch and smell, you will be guided on a several-stage journey to explore the light and shadows of the most intimate relationship and the one that matters most: the one with yourself.
