  
Conical Gallery Melbourne, Australia
28 October – 13 November 2005
A touring exhibition of products, process and residues from the meta performance
project KISSS
Responding to political, social and personal issues around surveillance
and suppression, KISSS incorporates the individual and collaborative practices
of artists, writers and curators.
KISSS was launched in August 2005 at the Whitechapel
Gallery London where KISSS strategies were presented to a full house in
a live, intermedia combination of performance, video, interventions and
working sessions. An audience member observed how she appreciated ‘the
range of material and approaches that were presented, from the very intimate
to the political body, without being didactic’. This was followed
in September by a Summit, at an isolated country retreat in Somerset.
A new piece of work Thomas’ Head was developed in response to the
site, the historical archive and ideas of surveillance and suppression
developed and enacted in public space.
KISSS is brought to Conical Gallery by London based Australian artists
Joanna Callaghan and Deej Fabyc and has been co-curated with paula roush
and Camilla Brueton.
