The Aural Exhibition titled “Seeing Through” by the writer, activist and sometime curator Lucy Lippard is a collage, weaving together visions and relationships from different times in her life that she experienced around her…. As Lucy describes “…collage has been an obsession and a medium for me. The Dada and surrealist idea of juxtaposition of unlikes as the source of a new reality probably underlies much of my work.” Amongst these various layers of unlikes which Lippard resurrects, the word ‘nostalgia’ comes to mind—encompassing the simultaneous pulse of emotion and memory; a sudden feeling felt in the present time —connecting—like an invisible ball of yarn—to the past.

“The Aural Exhibitions” are a series of sound only exhibitions produced by Index – The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation.
