The Material Revolution is a devotion to the political agency and silent power of materials to ignite systemic change. The programme will pay tribute to artists who refuse ingrained materialistic laws in order to reclaim meaning - from the subversive potential of metal in feminist discourse, to the physical and radical reclamation of urbanised territories with abolished agriculture, to the building of instruments from industrial waste to produce new sonic territories. The exhibition programme will take place in conjunction with an ambitious new action-orientated residency programme, which will be announced in early 2023.
