As we continue to navigate through a pandemic filled with ups and downs, and divided between virtual and in person spaces and relations, these residency artists have chosen to think of continuous ways to navigate the limits, and opportunities connected to the idea of space.  

Space-honey references an excerpt of “The Poetics of Space” where Bachelard speaks of Joë Bousquet’s idea of the expansion of intimate space. Bousquet uses the metaphor of honey in a hive as something that concentrates and radiates, and as a symbol of the “expansion of infinite things”.

Through the use of photography, installation, video and painting, these works embrace metaphors of the body negotiating our relationship with absence and presence.

The notion of space appears as a dimension of loss, intimacy, or fragmentation; it is also referred to as an inhabited place, as the location where limits and boundaries are defined, and where space takes the form of a deeper inquiry about coexistence.

The exhibition will be open only through appointment.
