Temporary Obsessions speaks to the small departures that drift away from mastery and the perfected—brief infatuations, speculative detours, and experiments that flirt with failure. These pursuits may appear as side projects, collaborations, half-formed ideas or quiet tests, yet they share a common trait: the charged, embodied moment of making.
With this premise, staff, students and alumni of the McNally School of Fine Arts were invited to engage with the site of a previous exhibition at the Alliance Française Gallery, where remnants and traces form part of the space. Their responses may surface through existing works, works-in-progress, overlooked trials and studies, or simply gestures they have long wished to try, to be realised and presented within the brief span of this exhibition.
