The lowdown
Twelve artists. Thirty-six panels. 1,728 possible bodies.
UNO — Todos somos uno is a modular, interactive art exhibition presented by the Chilean Australian Association (CASA) at Comber Street Studios, Paddington.
Twelve artists have each painted a triptych of the human body across three separate canvases: head, torso and feet. Hung together, they form twelve complete figures. Taken apart, they become something else, one artist's head above another's torso above a third artist's feet.
Visitors decide. Propose a combination and the curatorial team will physically make the move, panel by panel. Every recombination is one of 1,728 possible bodies, and the exhibition never looks the same twice.
About the work
Inspired by David Hockney's modular self-portraiture, UNO explores the interconnection of human existence through the body and its actions: the butterfly effect of every gesture, the interdependence between individuals, and the cultural ties between Chile, South America and Australia.
Each panel stands on its own. None of them means the same thing alone.
