The exhibition Signal, Interference unfolds in Stavros Niarchos Park. Works of video, sculpture, sound interventions, installations, and participatory practices appear along the park’s pathways, in areas where movement turns into pause or encounter. The Park constitutes an organised environment that manages flows, rhythms, and forms of coexistence. Its spatial layout, infrastructures, and surfaces shape modes of use and perception. The exhibition begins from an understanding of public space as a mechanism that coordinates environment, bodies, materials, and technological systems. Within this network, the works introduce new intensities and redistribute attention. They create zones of concentration, points of delay, and alternative ways of inhabiting space.

Visitors encounter moments of surprise, humour, friction, and reflection. Mental trajectories that appear distinct become entangled. Interference operates as a productive condition, generating frictions and attractions within this field. Through the works, the exhibition addresses abstract economic and ecological pressures, rendering visible relations of extraction and technological presence. Interference extends to the meeting of different temporal and material scales, from deep geological pressure to contemporary computational acceleration.

The works foreground ongoing negotiations around space, care, and violence; around what is audible, what can be articulated, and what is ultimately absorbed. They examine the relationship between demands, acceptance, collapse, and reconfiguration. In Signal, Interference, coexistence is shaped through negotiated balance and shared awareness.Care is approached within the complexity of power structures, and the artists engage with practices of endurance, maintenance, and sustained attention towards people, environments, and systems beyond the human.

Presented within the framework of the SNF Nostos Festival, Signal, Interference brings into dialogue new productions and existing works by SNF ARTWORKS Visual Arts Fellows and Grantees. It approaches contemporary art as a capacity for public thought, as a means of intervening in given conditions of mediation, in extractive and economic logics, in the conflicts that organize social space, and in the ways coexistence has already been defined. Through subtle yet incisive reformulations of space and experience, it invites audiences to engage with the present by exploring the material and immaterial conditions that connect bodies, systems, and environment.
