Element
Unit 13 Minerva Works, Fazeley Street, Digbeth, Birmingham, B5 5RS
6–9pm
For June Digbeth First Friday Stryx presents Element – an active research space by Ana Rutter and Kirsten Adkins inviting the viewer to look again at both the ordinary and the unexpected. The artists have gathered materials from diverse locations and situations; news footage, rehearsal spaces, gardens, buildings and digital spaces.
Through distilling, extracting, reformulating and repositioning sound, film, photo-graphs, objects and text the artists make new connections exploring the suggested, what is missing, the contradictory, the bits outside of the frame: The uncomfortable details which have been forgotten or the serendipitous moments which were mislaid.
