Framer Framed

A storytelling event within the context of the exhibition, Charging Myths.

Join us for the finissage of <a href="https://framerframed.nl/en/exposities/expositie-charging-myths/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Charging Myths</a> on Sunday 4 June, 15:00 – 17:00 with a special storytelling afternoon during <a href="https://amsterdamart.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Amsterdam Art Week 2023</a>. Within the context of the exhibition, following the trail of lithium, four invited artists use different methods of storytelling to forge a deeper connection to natural materials, whose stories and traces are often unknown.-﻿----Storytelling has long been an important and practice, as a means of education or in connection to our cultures. Charging Myths tells the story of lithium, which is extracted and undergoes various changes in order to be fit for technological use. Through their exhibition at Framer Framed, the artists of <a href="https://framerframed.nl/organisaties/on-trade-off/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">On-Trade-Off</a> have brought us closer to this mineral and shared both its intimate and global story. By highlighting its journey from source to its social relations and geopolitical consequences, lithium as an object or concept has been transformed.Following On-Trade-Off’s angle of approach, Framer Framed invites other artists to tell stories behind objects or materials, from their natural source to its outer use or finished product in a reflection of Charging Myths. What can we learn about ourselves and the worlds we inhabit through stories?The performances, conversations and stories of the event will be compiled into a zine, produced in collaboration with the artists, On-Trade-Off and Framer Framed.With contributions from:Greet BrauwersRaf CustersNémo CamusEsther MugambiLuigi CoppolaLucrezia Cippitelli<a href="https://framerframed.nl/en/projecten/finissage-charging-myths-in-words-nourished/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">F﻿or more information about the programme, see the Framer Framed website. </a>The title of this program is taken from the poem, We are a New Sun by Pélagie Gbaguidi, featured in Charging Myths.
