FJORD is pleased to present FJORD PROM at Icebox Mall. Since its origins as a studio and gallery space in May 2012, FJORD has changed its purpose, locations, membership, and even legal structure. Through all of these pivots and adaptations, FJORD has continued to thrive because of its dedicated members, past and present, who care deeply about supporting emerging artists, curating ambitious shows, fostering alternative discourses, contributing to the Philadelphia arts community and each other.
To celebrate the people who have made these fourteen years of collaboration possible, past and current members have paired up to create new works in response to one another’s practices and their individual experiences with the collective.
Join us as we celebrate fourteen years of FJORD with FJORD PROM!
About Icebox Mall:
Icebox Mall is a proud part of Collective Futures, is a six-week, citywide project activating Philadelphia’s network of artist-run spaces, DIY venues, and community-based initiatives.
Icebox Project Space becomes. We have it all: Late hours (open till 9PM), a movie theatre (Errata Projects), a video rental store (VCR). Get your outfits ready for prom (FJORD) and go to a club revival (PEEP Projects). We may not have a DEB, Claire’s, or Hot Topic, but on Wednesdays, we have a food court (Salad Bar Wednesdays)! Free to enter. Loitering is encouraged.
Inspired by the mall as a third space, a commons of collective experience, where you had your first kiss or hung out with your friends after school, Icebox Mall reimagines the familiar architectures of social life for collaborative cultural exchange.
Similar to the interdependent, yet separate nature of businesses within a mall, Icebox Mall operates as the container to bring together 11 different projects by Batikh Batikh, Fjord, BYO Printmaking Collaborative, Termite TV Collective, Biomaterials Working Group, FORTUNE, Da Vinci Art Alliance, errata projects, PEEP Projects, All Mutable, and Icebox Project Space.
