In War/At War: The Practice of Everyday



From Mat Rappaport via rhizome.org
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

War affects the daily life of all societies, cultures, families and individuals. The result is a climate of war, including the physical, economic, and psychological conditions created by the direct and indirect connection to this kind of violent conflict. We (in the broadest sense) generate and define the everyday, all becoming participants that shape perceptions of daily experience. In War our adjustments to everyday practices and daily life can reflect its radical climate, pointing to the nature of conflict and ones relationship to experience. We adapt. These adaptations vary depending on personal experiences and define one’s relationship to war and inform one’s everyday life.

In War/At War: The Practice of Everyday is an exhibition and series of events that investigates variations on everyday practices, projects, and tactics explored by individuals whom cope, adapt and adjust to War and the climate it produces.
