Ç°ÑÔ Introduction

Susana Wessling is currently developing a six-part project based on the ¡°Six memos for the Next Millennium¡± by Italo Calvino. In the Shangyuan Residency she has been working on the second memo: Quickness. Under this brief she has been exploring how different ways of expressing time in writing can be applied to her painting and the interactions they establish in the viewer. This project reflects on different approaches to storytelling and the different degrees to which a narrative is known or unknown. A little bit like seeing only a part of a bigger whole that does not allow itself for be known fully, a little bit like a stray on a leash.


Natalia Kalicki is fixated on two stone lions. Such statues are placed on either side of front doors to ward off ghosts. Their dignified mouths are frozen agape. This series investigates the ways in which symbolism morphs when the context of a specific mythology combines with unexpected visitors. How do guardian lions, as vestiges of the past, behave in the 21st century? Could they themselves be embodied ghosts? Are they perplexed? Or could they be, just a little bit, like a stray on a leash?

Susana Wessling is a half Portuguese half German visual artist currently living in Lithuania. Over the last seven years she has lived in five different countries and done residencies in four more. She draws from the experience of living in different places and moving often and her practice is based on collecting misfits, mishaps and mismatches that come to be in the liminal spaces created by this mobility.
