The New York based collaborative curation studio Darling Green invited us to read and discuss our Jellyfish Manifesto.

Telephone-telephone is part seminar, part reading group.
JÚVEL are involved in bringing the format of the
Telephone-telephone meetings overseas.

By embodying the jellyfish, this manifesto explores
alternative ways to experience and curate the exhibition.

The text focuses on the jellyfish's anatomy and its infinite lifecycle.
Being 95% water and 5% nervous system, the jellyfish's anatomy can be used as an entryway to discuss collective curatorial practices.
Its eternal life is used to emphasise our belief that shapeshifting, in curatorial and artistic practises, is superior to linear progress.
We aim for no product and no result.

We invited the New York based collaborative curation studio Darling Green to O-Overgaden in Copenhagen, for an open meeting discussing how language and the untranslatable can work as tools in order to gain a new perspective on the exhibition.
Together we came up with the idea of discussing translation within the art world, we gathered relevant reading, came up with a game for the physical meeting.

More information can be found on the website: Overgaden.org

A group show at Galleri Q in Copenhagen. 15 Scandinavia-based artists participated in a collective curating process administrated by JÚVEL. A curatorial decision for the group show was to discard the exhibition text and show a single channel video in the foajé.
