Our exhibitions conquer the spaces they inhabit and lay siege to human conduct; just such a happening can be found in our installation at our How Close We Are exhibit at the Kunsthalle Palazzo in Switzerland. The brooding sally uses metal grids recovered from an abandoned brewery, to which sound and lighting are integrated. Guided by a categorical refusal of all identifiable forms, a bleak space is created where the menacing texture of the air, light, and material obliterates the location’s hospitality, and where the only question visitors can ask of themselves is if they are welcome there at all.
