Thoughts are part of us, the narration and the story that we are telling ourselves. Switches of perception, when the thoughts become visible, unsilenced, embodied, and in positions where are not allowed to be voiced. How many thoughts are conditioned by our circumstances. What thoughts do we internalize, from where and when they come from, from whom. Into what kind of motions our thoughts are carrying us through.
What are the things only you notice that
stay unvoiced. What you keep noticing and trying to say
out but there is no capacity for your words
When we are exposed to something new or when we expose part of us which for others
is new, thought can deflect or change position
e x p o s i t i o n of the thought
Is it your thought too
Are you questioning this
Integration Manifesto
The internalizing/unlearning exhibition is based on the process of the development of the “Integration” Manifesto that Pina Stroynowska has been writing for several years.
Integration Manifesto
performative lecture
Thursday, March 7th 1900-2100
In 2020 Stroynowska started to work on the installation under the title “Integration. Thoughts moving your body”. It was also the moment when they recognized that within their written thoughts reemerging a new work - a manifesto “Integration”. This manifesto circles processes of consciousness: analyzing, reflecting, realizing, internalizing/unlearning and integrating.
Stroynowska will walk through the processes of “Integration” and explore a common thread between their manifesto and manifesto by Artur Żmijewskis ́ “The Applied Social Arts” (2007).
Pina Stroynowska (they/she/he) is an interdisciplinary, thought/text-based, politicly and socially engaged artist. Their main interest is the perception of identity in cultural conditioning, intersectionality, structural oppression and privilage. They studied art history at Wroclaw University and Freie University in Berlin. This spring they are graduating with an MA in Fine Art at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts.
