Two shelves in an industrial shelving system housing a group exhibition, embraced a neon tube. A transparent text print (an excerpt on attack tactics under difficult weather situations) was glued onto the tube. A peep-hole permitted view to some rice grains in motion on the membrane of a hidden speaker, immersed in intense red light. A high static crackling on a second speaker parasited another artist’s sculpture nearby. |
