info@displayfever.comA group exhibition featuring five artists from the Display Fever (@displayfever) community, run by Naz Balkaya (@nazbalkaya). The artists include
Naomi Boiko Stapleton
(@naomi_boiko), Lera Kelemen (@lerakelemen), Ela Kazdal (@elakazdal), Sofia Bordin (@healing.grotto) and Miya Kosowick (@miyakmawatari).
Aurora Instinct draws inspiration from the celestial aurora, symbolising resilience and radiance in the face of capitalism’s relentless commodification of desire. Influenced by Mark Fisher’s critique of capitalism and Silvia Federici’s vision of the healer as a symbol of resistance, the exhibition reclaims desire as a transformative and communal force for liberation. Through metaphors of light and fire, the featured artists celebrate instinct, identity, belonging, and healing, offering an antidote to exhaustion and disconnection. Their works envision desire as a visceral rhythm and a collective luster that resists techno-capitalist relations and consumption, fostering intuition and unity amid current global conflicts.
