CHIN YUQIN CASEY X MEDA POVILONYTĖ
extradimensional
Extra – beyond the frame, behind the eye. The outside.This exhibition is a love letter to things that persist outside the dimensions that govern life. Ecosystems that grow in the dark, stories that aggregate in peripheries, images that imprint themselves on the unseen edge between reality and perception:
outside of space, time, form, and sight.

about the exhibition
Extra – beyond the frame, behind the eye. The outside.This exhibition is a love letter to things that persist outside the usual dimensions that govern life. Ecosystems that grow in the dark, stories that aggregate in peripheries, images that imprint themselves on the blurred edge between reality and perception:
outside of space, time, form, and sight.Jointly presented by Chin Yuqin Casey and Meda Povilonytė as their first independent art exhibition, Extradimensional imagines a dreamlike refraction of marginal realities. A web of enchanted spaces, surreal encounters, and creature that invite life into unfamiliar homes.These things that spring into being without permission, unseen and unknown, that siphon life into their bodies and proliferate all on their own – we may glimpse them, or even have them, but no one owns them.We only hope to give a shape to these bright shadows,
and the extra dimension they have formed.
about the artists
Chin Yuqin, Casey
Casey is a Singaporean artist and writer whose practice plays with whimsy, words, and other worlds. Her interdisciplinary practice uses various experiments in storytelling to explore alterity, alienhood, and what connections and communication might persist across disparate spheres of existence. She aspires to re-enchant the disenchanted, reaching for wonder
wherever it may be found.
MEDA POVILONYTĖ
Meda is a British Lithuanian artist who’s practice centres around the notion of the undefined and transforming body. Through her experimental process-based practice, the fragmentation and accumulation of image, self and material is used to celebrate the malleability of identity. The blur becomes the focus and invites one to look [in][out]ward.
