OFLUXO

Bianka Chladek and Adrian Altman are presenting a new body of work.
Mainly consisting of surfaces developed through color and embroidery, it is unclear at what point ideas, markings and influences became layered.
Characters from a misunderstood – later recontextualised – BabyXsosa viral track feature in a few works dealing with the song’s commentary on recognition and social desire. Other works were made through recently learned skilled processes that have needed individual reclusion. An unapologetic intertwine, like old tattoos and skin marks coming back through summer looks.

We had this conversation while listening to anonymous unmastered tracks coming from a whatsapp group that serves as an experimental pool for a few djs, asking ourselves if the sound systems that regularly play the tracks are taking the toll of the unequalized frequencies. The internet has failed. So did Esperanto but for different reasons.

Through something similar to method acting they have managed to take on multiple personalities allowing them to thrive quietly during these last months. As art critics to get into museums, as carpenters to build bars, as interpreters in a glassware orchestra, as online sellers of repurposed found material and even as basketball players in the nearby court.
