STEAK is delighted to present Colloquialisms, a three-person exhibition by Jinyong Park (London, UK), Moley Talhaoui (Stockholm, SE), and Natan Lawson (Baltimore, MD). A selection of paintings and works on paper investigate the subtle patterns and mechanics of everyday language through contrasting yet related modes of expression. Park, Talhaoui, and Lawson visualize messages and language, through linguistic systems, wordplay, or digital reproduction of analog scripts that consider bilingual patterns and challenges, as well as new meanings when words are pronounced or spelled slightly differently, and how language itself is a shape-shifter over time and from place to place.
Colloquial language is described as communication used in a casual or familiar way, as opposed to formal or literary usage. Each artist’s methods and processes are extraordinarily different, yet they share a common curiosity about the way that vocabulary and languages intersect, occasionally humorously, often abstractly. In an ever more globalized society that relies on technological connectivity for business and long-distance communication, and applications like Google Translate or email auto-complete, highlight how much easier it has become to communicate globally while neglecting or even erasing subtle nuances of regional dialect or vernacular—or entire language altogether--making everyday usage more globally uniform.
