Drawing inspiration from Gaston Bachelard’s seminal text ‘The Poetics of Space,’ the second and physical iteration of [ROOM] seeks to engage with the intersection of the confinement of the skin to the body and the transformative dynamics of art within an intimate confined space. This physical interaction of [ROOM] aligns with Bachelard’s conceptual framework, particularly his exploration of ‘topoanalysis’ and ‘intimate immensity.’ By utilizing an intimate and curated gallery space, [ROOM] aims to examine how artists articulate and challenge the boundaries of corporeal confinement within their practices. The series will showcase a selection of artists and site specific installations that collectively navigate the nuanced relationship between the human body’s physical limitations and the expressive potential inherent in confined spatial contexts.
