Pang


𝘗𝘢𝘯𝘨 is a publication of essays that are centred on affective responses to the visual world — that is, visual material that elicits an immediate, physical, emotional response, and using that “panged” feeling as a jumping-off point into wider explorations into how art, media, aesthetics, and the wider world around us can move us, shift our perceptions, enable critical thinking, and experience pleasure, disgust, and revelation.

Featuring Rebecca Hall, Haneen Mahmood Martin, Gabriella Bartolo-Kanellopoulos, & Thomas Stoddard.

Edition of 25.

Available to purchase from Bus Projects.

𝘪 𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘺𝘯𝘹 is a group exhibition that explores self-generated inheritances and recontextualised memories through affect-driven artefacts. It featuring works by Naarm/Melbourne based artists Lara Chamas, Eric Della Bosca, Ara Dolatian, and Stefa Panoschi. 

The artefacts that result from this mythology-making produce a more-real-than-real autobiography, where recasting personal and inherited histories carry the same weight as our lived reality. 

Familial bonds, past cultural legacies, and perceptions of place all intertwine into affect-driven practices, with each artist attempting to gather the inherited dust of the past - speaking through it in their own forged voice. 



These works collectively tease at the relationships between malleable memory and malleable earth. Time and pressure mould them into new shapes, all with the essence of the original material, but expressing something new.

Hostility as practice. Passive(aggressive) corporate HR conflict mediation.

Ramírez and Panoshi take part in a “mediation session” as they are two artists “at war” with one another, after a “terrible falling out.”

The artists air their grievances to each other, and an HR manager advises them further — as per the correct institutionally mandated policies, of course.

To maintain consistent public accountability, the mediation session has been recorded, to play on loop indefinitely. It is hoped, that with the audience’s semi-permant scrutiny, inclination for punitive memory making, and Instagram-close-friends-story-gossip, that the results of this mediation will stick with the artists indefinitely.
