Body Machine Location Exhibition

Discover the captivating world of "Art Body Machine Location Exhibition," a thought-provoking solo exhibition by Jackie Karuti at the prestigious Kunsthalle Bern in Switzerland. Karuti's work delves into the realms of moving-image art, drawing inspiration from Fukeiron, the landscape theory developed by early Japanese filmmakers. Departing from the traditional notion of photographing landscapes as crime scenes, Karuti constructs intricate images that intertwine seemingly unrelated occurrences witnessed in Nairobi, Kajiado, and various locations in Japan. This exhibition invites you to explore the artist's journey of searching, locating, and improvisation, offering a unique reading of the landscape through a combination of mappings, fictions, and visual storytelling. Prepare to be mesmerized by the imaginative and thought-provoking artistry that Jackie Karuti brings to life, as her work transcends boundaries and challenges conventional perspectives on space, place, and imagery.
