Curated by Bogdana Skorik 
9th October - 6th of November, opening Friday 9th of October, from 7pm

Work in this exhibition includes a performance featuring Ira Tcymbal.

In her new project Cosis, Anna Andrzhievskaia transforms the Tangent Projects to mimic its neighbour, Condis. The supermarket ruins strip away any sense of sanctity or the feel of a pristine "cabinet of curiosities," turning the space instead into a liminal repository of mundane, unremarkable objects. The ironic title Cosis alludes to this, playing on the Spanish word “cosas”—“little things" or “knick-knacks” and at the same time Catalan “cos” - “body”. Or perhaps it hints at hyper-consumption—where the act of visiting a retail environment becomes the primary narrative, and actually buying something is merely an afterthought. Bogdana Skorik
