RELIC // INSTALLATION // 2014
// venus in the window
RELIC // INSTALLATION is a durational work of art, set in a gallery or behind a shop-window.
This site-specific, versatile performance is an early iteration of RELIC [2015], and directly inspired by the entertainment business and movie industry at large. This time, varied and radical uses of a shop-window or a gallery space are put under the magnifying glass. From selling platforms to protest spaces, both settings test the boundaries of public versus private and challenge the often-suggested superiority of a product or an exhibited piece of art.
