Opening Agnė Jokšė: REALITY CRACKS

Welcome to the opening of REALITY CRACKS, a solo exhibition by Agnė Jokšė.
At 18:00 there will be an introductory talk between the artist and Index team.

Agnė Jokšė’s first solo exhibition in Sweden centres around a new film work titled Karjeristė, in which a newly developed script recontextualises footage filmed several years ago. Through text and image, Jokšė constructs new grammatical and linguistic frameworks to investigate and critically portray the limitations of language itself.

Agnė Jokšė (b. 1993) is an artist and writer currently based in Vilnius. Using the tools characteristic to autoethnography, Jokšė tells stories in which personal experiences and past events related to contemplations of love, intimacy, relations and friendship intertwine with imaginative reflections. Works in the mediums of video and performative text often investigate questions concerning parallel histories, compassion, entangled relations, queerness and language.

Jokšė has exhibited at Palais de Tokyo; E-flux Screening Room New York; Kogo Gallery; Cell Project Space; Editorial; Kunsthal Charlottenborg; Whitechapel Gallery; GIBCA and the Baltic Triennial.
