Studio XX is proud to host multi-site installation SAVE AS / Ctrl+Maj+S, by artist Joanna Lai in our lab space, at 4001 Berri, suite 201, from April 7 to April 15, 2012. Through the mimetic gestures of neurotic Saving, this multi-site installation questions the value of documentation and the act of documenting indiscriminately. Engaging the viewer in a dialogue that addresses issues of compromising security in the name of Saving, Save As tests the degree to which data can be preserved for recovery.
