SLAUGHTER MACHINES: RE-CODING THE RESIDUAL



The exhibition explores residue as what remains after processes of classification, discipline, domestication, and erasure. Taking place in a former slaughterhouse, the exhibition engages with the memory of a site once connected to the industrial management of living bodies: their slaughter, use, disposal, and conversion into matter, value, and waste. Bringing together works that move between digital traces, social ghosts, abandoned houses, childhood memories, folklore, and mediated spiritual practices, the exhibition follows forms of persistence that survive disappearance. Rather than seeking purity or completion, it focuses on fragments, altered returns, and ghostly presences emerging from what was meant to be discarded.
