Angelica Mesiti: The Colour of Saying
The artist explores how we dance, sing and communicate deeply with our hands.
Overview
Giving new meaning to the idea of speaking with one’s hands, The Colour of Saying by Paris- and Sydney-based artist Angelica Mesiti is an exploration of non-verbal expression. This multichannel video work is woven from music, movement and silence. It is the result of a workshop led by Mesiti in Sweden.
Set within a white landscape, the work incorporates a diverse group of performers — dancers, musicians and a sign language choir. Praised for the cinematic quality of her practice, Mesiti has been tapping into different cultures and methods of communication for some time now. On display at Anna Schwartz Gallery, this alluring take on the spectrum of human interaction is likely to uphold her reputation.
