Curated by Andy Butler, A Moment in Extended Crisis considers the historical and contemporary resonances of movement and migration that occur against the backdrop of large-scale political upheaval. With a focus on the long shadow cast by movement out of Asia across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, artists Nathan Beard, Jane Jin Kaisen, Prima Sakunthabai, Sarah Ujmaia, Isaac Chong Wai, and John Young use various artistic processes and mediums to make sense of the intimate experiences and effects of revolution, military interventions, exile, and emigration to the west.
