The Analogue Attachments of Modern Love is a group show of female artists titled The Analogue Attachments of Modern Love. Comprised of the work of 6 artists from across Southeast Asia, the exhibition is oriented around the making of things. The traditional tools of material manipulation, from the needle to the printing press, are no less utilized today than the appliances of our computerized age.
If artists used to sew and knit and draw, they may be said to do the same with the keyboard and mouse today – with surprisingly non-digital results in certain cases. The machines that provide circuits of connectivity are no less instruments of the creative process in the twenty-first century than those tools that have ossified into cultural nostalgia and cottage industry in an era of wired interactivity and abstraction.
These techniques are assimilated into the practices of the artists included in The Analogue Attachments of Modern Love. Their objects and gestures, fashioned from thread and batik and aluminium and computer printouts and, indeed, the human body itself, among a panoply of other materials, simply suggest inflected and decidedly contemporary forms of object-making.
