Curated by Keehnan Konyha and Jacob Gaboury. "TROLL is a group exhibition to examine the act of trolling as a sexual, cultural, and ethical practice. To troll is to sift through image and text, filtering and re-contextualizing subject-significant objects; it is a baiting and malicious comment made behind the anonymity of the Web, soliciting argument for the purpose of producing breakdown and chaos; it is a sexual practice, to cruise for sex, to seek partners anonymous or otherwise." Featured Kai (Kari) Altmann's "Hhellblauu", a performative printout of an online project made on request for the show, which included no projectors or screens, no production or shipping budget and almost no lead time. A "come and hang what you have, and then hangout for the night" performative group show.

Curated by Timur Si-Qin. "Extracting a parallel instance of the work as a three-dimensional representation of geometric data, Exhibition One offers an opportunity to present an alternate framework that posits the questions: Where does an artwork stop and its documentation begin? What is the function of a prospective image that is decisively not-a-model?" [2]
