The art world, like any other cultural or social organisational sphere, is based around a principle of continuation. We tend to organise ourselves and our passions around growth, improvement and what we abstractly call ‘moving forward’. Neo-capitalist culture demands a linear narrative in a way that is unprecedented and largely uncriticised.
At Sluice_ we ask: What if we stepped sideways? What if we trailed off, or broke away, out of mere curiosity? Discontinuity – in text, in art, in the world – can lead to new, formerly unimaginable creations. Similarly, Sluice_magazine offers the opportunity for disruptions to take place.
