No comment came into the justice system in 1984 and to use it may imply guilt or culpability.
On saying ‘no comment’ you are choosing not to resolve issues allowing the viewer to assume and fill in the blanks giving the news without the commentary.
Preparing an artist's statement can hide a multitude of personal experiences; a statement can allude to something without being explicit.
We can write in a broad sense, generalising without giving the deep-rooted physiological self.
The works have been selected to pause, a chance for the artist to deliberate shun or re-evaluate for further development.
This is a space to be explicit and not discuss it.
Information for the exhibition including each artist's statement will be redacted and works will be listed as 'untitled' the concept for the exhibition is to give zero information allowing the viewer to decipher and form their own narrative.
