Manifesto of the art of levitation














(Images above are a part of a series of 31 photographs- 16 statements + 16 images)

The show 'proposed an unknown object, which is capable of solving the many philosophical conundrums, posed by art.... its actual powers and that it’s problem-solving aptitude is just another contentious conspiracy theory, proposed by the participant artists.'
Therefore, 'Manifesto of Levitation' was proposed as a narrative that states and yet questions these conundrums through a magical realm which defies the forces of gravity and places you above the pedestal. From this position above the pedestal you enact the trinity of the judge, the
spectator and the creator.

The work was placed on the wall as leaflets that could be browsed through.
