JocJonJisch is the artistic collaboration of Joc Marchington, Jonathan Brantschen and Joschi Herczeg.

This exhibition presents their explorations into memories and perceptions of reality.

‘Straying Closer To The truth’ is an exhibition and series of events resulting from an ongoing programme of artists’ residencies at the Friary over the past two years. Each artist resident was invited to live with the friars for a period of weeks. They were provided with large studio spaces, and invited to experience the rhythm of the friars’ existence, and to attend morning masses, meditations, meals and any other day-to-day goings on that might occur.

The creativity and work generated from the residency programme culminates in this week-long event, which will include visual art, performances, poetry readings and a symposium where members of the public will be invited to join the artists and friars in a discussion on the role of spirituality in art, and art in spirituality.

Participating artists, coming from Ireland, England, Eastern Europe and America, will present work made during the residency, as well as developing site-specific installations over the week.

Thomas Haywood “Family” images printed by Artful Dodgers Imaging.

Will Cruickshank makes insouciant objects that react to the viewer with a deep, deadpan comedy. They are faux-scientific experiments in weight, movement, balance and human activity. Cruickshank’s site-specific activities include converting a broken bicycle into a mobile free hot-chocolate stall in Zhongdian, Yunnan, China. For Standpoint, he will welcome visitors into the building with a tune.

Thomas Haywood’s ‘Family’ is a photographic body of work that has been developing over the last five years, exploring the nature of family relations, associations with place, and ideas of belonging. This ‘knowledge’ emerges as much from Haywood’s aesthetic debt to the semi-rural surburbia of film and television as it does to the viewer’s personal memories. Haywood’s technique aspires to visual containment of a milieu – the understanding that comes from viewing a thing from all different angles, over and over again.

Ulrike Mohr calculates systems of position location, which refer as much to sociology as geography - what is my position in this system; what is my place; where are the gaps in my network; am I inside or out? For the 5th Berlin Biennial, Mohr relocated several scrubby, self-seeded trees from the roof of the Palast der Republic (former GDR parliament building) to the Skulpturenpark. Working with abandoned trees sourced from the local environment, Mohr will be making a new conceptual installation for Standpoint.
