Curatorial context
Thinking and working within the perspective of decolonial ecology, artist, DJ, poet, and community organizer Soñ Gweha articulates strategies for inscribing pleasure and joy as tools for entering what they refer to as the “healing body.” Their transdisciplinary practice, spanning video, sculpture, installation, sound, and DJing, centers the power of queer eroticism and focuses on care, desire, friendship, and family bonds as sources for agency.
Soñ Gweha’s first solo exhibition in Austria, 'A Quiet Storm Blowin’,' unfolds as a multi-sensual landscape that alternately serves as a stage, a resting zone, or a site of action and encounter, and then again all of these at once. With its focus on activation, the show encompasses—next to three installational pieces from Soñ Gweha—a DJ booth, a workshop area, and a library. A public live program hosted by the artist and local as well as international collaborators utilize these places and make the exhibition continuously transform itself.
