All the islands in the ocean
All the heaven’s in the motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes
– Depeche Mode (1990)
In its second season, the artist talk series World in My Eyes presents Jonathas de Andrade, Selma Selman, Salman Toor, and Cecilia Vicuña. Each artist contributes to both the discursive and formal hybridity of contemporary art at a moment of acute geopolitical volatility and increasing polarization.
Launched in 2023, World in My Eyes is an artist lecture series in Stockholm presented through a collaboration between Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design; Moderna Museet; and the Royal Institute of Art and hosted by Mötesplats Mariatorget. Its title drawn from the eponymous 1990s electronic music hit by English band Depeche Mode, the series aims to present artistic perspectives from a wide range of media that are changing the relationship between material processes and socio-political imagination.
