Saturday, October 18, from 6-9 p.m.
Free and Open to the Public
Covington Plaza, Underground Walkway
144 Madison Ave. Covington, KY 41011
This iteration of Portals, Pathways, and the Space Between Us will activate the underground walkway of the Covington Plaza. A sound installation by Nick Keeling using four modified 8-track cartridge machines will be interwoven by a single decaying audio tape loop traversing the space. The source audio material, composed by Britni Bicknaver and Brianna Kelly, will travel from machine to machine slowly decaying, overlapping, and warping with each passing playback. This sound installation will play in tandem with ghostly projections from Sora Kim and Katinka Bock.
More Information:
Portals, Pathways, and the Space Between Us is an exhibition in collaboration with KADIST that explores placemaking, shapeshifting, and the temporalities of Kentucky through the Ohio River.
The exhibition explores placemaking, shapeshifting, and temporalities of Kentucky through the Ohio River. The river is a point of study and departure, its historical significance rooted in division and symbols of freedom. The river acts as both a border and a point of shared connection—the complexities of this contradiction are unique to Kentucky, revealing the nuances of placemaking and identity.
Thinking of movement, fluidity, ephemerality, and environmental activation, this exhibition consists of outdoor pop-up video exhibitions that take place throughout the state of Kentucky. The exhibition spans six venues across six cities in Kentucky, occurring once a month from June to November 2025. The traveling exhibition is composed of two videos and a soundscape that represent international and regional voices that interweave disruption and contemplation through placid yet subversive temporalities.
