With sculptural installations alluding to the body and its symbolism, the exhibition — and accompanying album produced with Gediminas Žygus — looks at the slippages and difficulties of communication. As noted in the press release, Danz’s work “probes the expressive capabilities and limitations of language, the legibility of signifiers and their hierarchical systems.”**
