Cabinet/Record

Cabinet/Record is curated by Beata America (Cape Town, South Africa), and features photographs that capture impressions of the world around us.

 

Cabinet/Record intends to offer shapeshifting perspectives which resonate and remind us of an idea, time or feeling. Often regarded as a protected space of display, a cabinet can be seen as a device which holds scenes of significant memory, carefully chosen and safely encased in nostalgia and preciousness.

 

Cabinet/Record broadens our understanding and relationship to the visual components of sound, through the expression and listening of photographs as record-keeping devices. In reference to Tina Campt’s text ‘Listening to Images’, “Sound can be listened to, and, in equally powerful ways, sound can be felt; it both touches and moves people”.
