On Second Thought

The exhibition On Second Thought is concerned with contemplative pieces that exist in themselves as unfolding inquiries, probes that fluidly transition from the quotidian to the exceptional utilizing technical means as a virtual haptic pathway inviting us to delve deeper, to consider and reconsider.

On Second Thought
At a moment of digital ubiquity, it may be easier to treat the data from digital platforms as primary in contemporary innovation and to believe that, if coated with sensors in an internet of things, the stiff, dumb world will suddenly become responsive and “smart.” But the heavy lumpy components of space are themselves information systems that don’t really need digital devices to make them dance.
The 35m2 gallery presents two monumental works, two different environments. Both spaces are based on the same material context, the same material language. Yet each of these realizations appeals to different senses using different techniques and materials. These new spatial configurations, structures, and installations, which shape our spatial orientation and navigation through space, primarily appeal to our basic senses, our sensory memory, and our individual/private memory.
