Interview with the curator:

What is your exhibited work all about?
It is about how we live and how we want to live. This question is of fundamental concern to us all and to society as a whole – perhaps more than almost anything else in art.

What interests you about housing?
That it is at once both private and political. One constant of my work is the creation of “places of possible habitation” both in reality and in art, since to me, there is not much difference between the two. As I see it, the question of how we live begins with how we relate to each other and to things, and how we share space.

How might we live in future?
Hopefully in a way that our interactions with space and things are constantly opening up new possibilities and becoming less and less constricting, both politically and socially; and in a way that our sharing of space and our housing preferences no longer depend on economic parameters.
