  • 48H ABRACADABRA 2.0 x SOSÂGE
    digital group exhibition

    During the challenging times of the pandemic, when cultural institutions, galleries, and other artistic spaces were forced to close, the 48H collective (KÜSSE Berlin) and visual artist WESLEY JOHN FOURIE took the initiative to create a digital world map. This map aimed to showcase the works of around thirty diverse artists, each offering their artistic interpretation of the question, What does your relationship with nature look like? The artists were also identified by their respective locations and provided personal accounts of their experiences during this unprecedented situation. The online platform presented a wide-ranging collection of multidisciplinary artworks, including video art performances, sound poetry, graphic design, fashion design, DJ sets, photography, and sculpture. The transformation of the notion of space, interactivity, and reception was significant in this digital landscape. The platform also featured interviews with artist and researcher ASHLEIGH TAUPAKI from Wellington and designer SARTHAK SAXENA from New Delhi. Additionally, a text by theorist and philosopher HELENA ASHA, the director of Kaalo 101 in Kathmandu, enriched the platform’s content.This digital platform remained accessible online from May 2020 to January 2021, serving as a dynamic space for artistic exploration and engagement despite the physical limitations imposed by the pandemic.

  • 48H ABRACADABRA Festival
    at Nepal Art Council, Katmandu

    48h Collective is the first identity of KÜSSE Berlin. Formed in Kathmandu with the visual artist WESLEY JOHN FOURRIE, 48h was a space for artistic experimentation. Functioning as a residency, its communal living arrangement embarked on the audacious endeavor of curating an exhibition within a mere 48-hour window, spanning a span of 10 days. In tandem with the Nepal Art Council, the collective orchestrated a multifaceted showcase, encompassing an eclectic array of artworks and performances that articulated a kaleidoscopic vision. By intertwining the local ethos through the curation of Nepalese artists and embracing diverse artistic disciplines, including poetry and fashion design, 48h transcended conventional boundaries. The culmination was a dynamic exposition, punctuated by live performance sessions, over two-day period.
