Solo exhibition Jan Adriaans. Synchrony Collapse

– bb15

Three video-works explore human selfhood in its evolutionary context. By drawing a parallel with the animal, the set of constraints we are subjected to become more apparent. If we take these constraints into account, how can we redefine human agency, will, and control?
“Selfhood is tyrannical precisely insofar as it is merely a congerie of drives.The act supplants the tyranny of the impulsive self with the rule of the subject. But it is the act itself that is subject. It is no-one’s.” Brassier
