What are you Saying – 2024

2024 Toronto Nuit Blanche – Interactive Webcam Installation

Artist

 “What are you Saying” cures Nuit Blanche FOMO (fear of missing out) by bridging the event’s multiple installations and physical locations through interactive video chat stations.

Part webcam wallpaper and part soapbox TV station, “What are you Saying” is a way to connect through space and time, virtually and in person. Spread throughout the Waterfront Central exhibition, audiences can see and hear what is happening in the distance, in real time, connected through video chat windows. What are you seeing? Where will you be? How are the crowds? Does this sound familiar? Stay connected and find out what’s happening by checking in at one of the interactive video chat stations. This is your chance to talk about what you’ve seen and find out what’s happening at the various locations of “What are you Saying”.

For the 2022 Toronto Biennial, Syrus Marcus Ware presents MBL: Freedom (2022). This work is the next chapter of the saga, wherein the three Black, Indigenous, and POC Antarcticans flee the Company’s territories and abandon their mission to colonize Antarctica, swimming in icy waters toward the only part of the continent not claimed by a country, “Mary Bird Land,” or MBL.

MBL: Freedom (2022) is commissioned by the Toronto Biennial of Art and made possible with the generous support of the Age of Union Alliance.

LBD: An Installation

What if the rooms we stay in held onto the memories that were made there? LBD is the story of 2 women who met in this one room, 3 times over 3 decades.
