Louisa Gagliardi is presenting an exhibition, Over and Under, featuring Adam Cruces + Greg Ito, at Brussels’ Mon Chéri, opening January 28 and running to March 5.
There’s no information on what the exhibition entails aside from a text by Laura Indorato Erba describing elements of French artist Henri Matisse’s practice for pinning cutouts to his studio walls. It carries on to relate this “perforation of the surface” to “a determined choice to form one’s physical identity these days”.
Drawing on ideas of body modification and home decorating as attempts to construct “an individual perception of a human being’s outer appearance” the wandering prose suggests a human modifies their environment to suit themselves, and not the other way around: “It has been turned into another form of expressing oneself through becoming a spatial ornament.”
