OverLOAD / PROVISIONAL ARCHITECTURE

OverLOAD

A passage built from what can be carried

RAW ARCHITECTURE / EXPOSED BODIES

Three provisional shelters

OverLOAD brings together three provisional structures made from thin battens, clothes, screens, blankets, cast hands and ties. Clothing keeps the outline of a body that has gone. A blanket offers warmth while the exposed structure leaves shelter uncertain.

Moving images occupy the structures alongside these everyday things. Passage, sightlines and the placement of screens are developed with the exhibition room.
