Created in response to the gallery’s site, Shifting Spaces explores how simple geometric patterns transform a space and create new perspectives. Screen-printed works on paper and murals respond to each other, immersing the viewer in a dynamic and contemplative environment. Drawing on architecture and principle of repetition, the installation plays with notions of dimensionality, in-between space and movement.
