End of december, this group show with 53 partaking artists was hosted by the Sicc.Zine collective. The works show diverse points of view on the subject of crime. The publication
âSicc.Zine Vol.III - crime editionâ displays sequential works on the same topic.
Crimes as such are not only defined by the law, but can also be negotiated by a society
or individuals. In this group exhibition and third publication, the Sicc.Zine collective addresses the topic of crime, a topic whose presence seems omnipresent and inherent in
daily media reports, pop culture, and everyday life. However, the assertion of the moral
discussion of what is good and what is bad is not at the centre of importance - this should
take place with the viewer. What intrigues the collective are the artistic positions and their
various demarcations of right and wrong. Moreover, why do we find it interesting to notice,
experience, or even do something forbidden? There can be something appealing,
voyeuristic in tragedy, and quickly one transforms from an observer to a perpetrator.
The zine is devided into 4 chapters that focus on the crime scene as the distinctive factor.
The chapters start at the small stage with internal struggles with criminality, and move
along domestic crimes to the public space and finally finish off at the global stage as
a crimescene. In the exhibition, these chapters are translated into the 4 (+1) rooms of the
location.
