Brief
A collaborative exhibition by Dina Danish and Farley Gwazda text, video performance, sound recordings and drawings
Dina Danish and Farley Gwazda explore the process of getting to know each other through various forms of communication. The piece is structured by exaggerating the dialectic between SERIOUS and PLAYFUL approaches.

The SERIOUS is embodied in a series of Chaliffs ("tchay-lif" – a made-up word derived from challenge and motive), which take the form of various experiments or games with strict rules and agreed-upon goals. These are defined by the media through which they are created and documented.

The PLAYFUL is embodied in the performance of these Chaliffs, the goals of which are perhaps impossible to achieve. The artists recognize miscommunication as part of the process and operate with a healthy disrespect for their own rules.

The artists had met only once before starting this project, and have since been collaborating through emails, instant-messenger, text-messages, YouTube and face-to-face communication.
