Forms are often understood as stable entities: defined, recognisable, and complete. Yet much of our experience unfolds elsewhere, in moments of transition, uncertainty, and gradual change. Unfixed: Between Form and Dissolution brings together artists whose works inhabit these unsettled conditions, exploring what emerges when structures loosen, boundaries blur, and fixed meanings begin to shift.
The exhibition considers form not as a final state but as an ongoing process. Across diverse media and approaches, the participating artists engage with movement, fragmentation, layering, erosion, repetition, and transformation. Some works explore material instability, where surfaces dissolve, accumulate, or evolve over time. Others attend to psychological, social, environmental, or cultural conditions that resist certainty and remain open to reinterpretation.
Rather than presenting dissolution as an endpoint, the exhibition approaches it as a generative space, one in which new relationships, possibilities, and understandings may emerge. The works gathered here occupy the threshold between presence and absence, coherence and dispersal, revealing the dynamic nature of forms that are never entirely fixed.
Presented on CISTA ARTS’ online platform, Unfixed also reflects on the conditions of contemporary viewing. Encountered through the screen, images are continually reframed, revisited, and recontextualised. In this environment, meaning remains fluid, shaped by movement, attention, and exchange.
Together, the artists in this exhibition invite us to dwell within states of becoming, where uncertainty is not a lack of resolution but a space of possibility, and where form itself remains open, provisional, and alive.
