Silverlens Manila is pleased to announce Ocular Vocabulary, a solo exhibition by Thai artist Mit Jai Inn.
In this exhibition, Mit acts as a master of his own language. Ocular Vocabulary is a visual language-game that echoes Wittgenstein's concept of "Sprachspiel," in which meaning is ever malleable and relative. Thus, meaning is generated through collaborative interaction, where meaning emerges within the context of individual experience. The exhibition will feature several of his ongoing series such as Actants, Marking Stones, Book, Capsule, and Grid, as well as his latest series, the Bangkok Apartments. This participatory work invites viewers to take a painted object made from recycled material in exchange for sharing documentation. The project is inspired by an earlier project by Mit, Vienna Apartments (1991), in which the artist invited his friends and residents of the city to take an object made from found material and furniture and open their homes for a public exhibition.
