The exhibition assume vivid astro focus: XI at The Bass in Miami Beach presents an immersive installation by the São Paulo-based collective assume vivid astro focus (avaf). The vibrant exhibit spans from floor to ceiling, enveloping visitors in a world of densely patterned wallpaper, colorful seating, and a modular stage. The installation includes digital decals, shapeshifting sculptures, and a large-scale video projection, creating an environment where art and audience interaction blur.
This project showcases avaf's signature fusion of various media, including contributions from artists like General Idea and Honeygun Labs. The exhibition not only revisits the communal excitement it sparked in Miami two decades ago but also introduces new elements like a mural celebrating local drag performers, emphasizing avaf's commitment to inclusivity and community. Central to the show is the video "Butch Queen Realness with a Twist in Pastel Colors," a seven-hour exploration of queerness and cultural subversion, curated by avaf to reflect their influences and ethos.
