Who defines who we are as individuals and shapes our perception of ourselves and our place in the world? This is the central question of theexhibition MOI. Christian Falsnaes, a Danish artist born in 1980 and renowned for his participatory performances, explores power dynamics and the transformation of "I" into "WE".
In the collective " WE" that Falsnaes creates through his performances, it's a matter of putting oneself on pause. In theBicolore exhibition space, a selection of graffiti from the WRITERS UNITED AGAINST THE GREY series features the names of graffiti artists, a declaration of self ("I'm here"), but at the same time, the mass of names/declarations blends into large-scale collective murals, where each name becomes small parts of a whole.
During the opening, Christian Falsnaes will offer visitors an immersive, collaborative experience at 7.30pm. Each participant will contribute a performance to the final work. This performance will be filmed and become themain work in the exhibition MOI!
Then, at 9pm, the Maison du Danemark will host a cocktail reception with a DJ set by NOVA soundsystem.
The exhibition is part of the I-LAB project, in which Le Bicolore in Paris and the Randers Art Museum, based on international contemporary art, explore the concept of identity.
