Through a variety of media (including photography, embroidered texts, performance, video and painting) The Power Plant’s presentation of Auto Emotion: Autobiography, Emotion and Self-fashioning destabilizes the boundaries between reality and illusion; pleasure and pain. Addressing heartbreak, death, the intersection of politics and religion, and the marked body, the works play with the social codes which demand that one remain in control of both body and emotion. The exhibition features a stellar list of Canadian and international artists, including Marina Abramovic, Reza Afisina, Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Sophie Calle, Andrea Fraser, Rodney Graham, Christian Jankowski, Yayoi Kusama, Nikki S. Lee, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Matt Mullican, Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay, Adrian Paci and Johannes Wohnseifer.
