“S-motion” is a section of the VOLUMES archive curated by M.Paradoxa artist collective (Balca Ergener, Ziqi Jiang, Esther Schena, Lisa Biedlingmaier). It brings together publications that concern or are products of collaborative work taking different forms. M.Paradoxa has been guided by a feminist approach. For them, “S-motion” is an unfolding where their different speeds and time perceptions meet each other. There are turbulences and currents, possibilities to linger and to swerve, to be carried or pulled along. Like many collectives with members who are citizens of different countries, they are increasingly confronted with the need to work together from a distance and are continuing to find different ways to do this. Several works in the archive section therefore address translation, working with different languages and transgressing borders.
The VOLUMES Archive is based on a collection of zines, artist books and publications, which exists thanks to the donations received since 2013 for our International Open Call exhibition and Book Awards. Since 2015, we have worked towards cataloguing sections of this collection, in collaboration with artists, historians and curators. Each archive section compiles and activates content from our existing collection, while suggesting new acquisitions to complement and expand this curated constellation of publications. This final compilation is what gets archived as a section.
We have received the Jan Tschichold Award 2022!
And we are overwhelmed. Thank you to everyone who has been with us along the way! ❤️
