Writing
9Questions, an artist project by Gustaf Broms
 2018

For Broms, these nine are the essential questions. The responses collected are as diverse and wide-ranging as the artists and their own approaches, from the practical, to the abstract to the simply far-flung, in addition to some reassuring and surprising overlapping ideas and connections.

Land Acknowledgement

FADO Performance Art Centre acknowledges that as settlers, we are not the first to gather in this place where we currently operate, the location where you can find our office and the place where the vast majority of the performances we present are created, witnessed and enjoyed. This land, the place that we now refer to as ‘Toronto’ is the traditional and unceded territory of many First Nations and peoples including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples, living as they were in the North Part of Turtle Island.

Colophon

FADO identity and website designed and developed by I Know You Know. The rebranding process aimed for an "anti-identity" approach—as little design as possible, an empty frame for artists to fill. The guiding question soon became: How does the website itself “perform”? A clock counts time spent on the site; an oversized cursor highlights gesture and focus; a time machine panel refreshes and reframes the archive; a synesthesia of color and custom fragrances guides navigation.

Writing Blue

Writing Blue is the smell of interpretation. Composed of materials that many "know", blueberry candy offers a flicker of nostalgia. Grounded in blue cypress like a hunch that comes from speculation, it is the lavender that offers overwhelming explanations.
