A History Of The Receding Horizon 2015 video still |
16 January - 14 February 2016 |
Here everything is drab and dry, void of colour and nearly still. There are no memories here, no community, no personal tributes. There is only a strange droning hum, and a flickering of strip lights to reveal the stairs climbing up and out. The walls bear testimony to former water damage and yet there is nobody around to care. In places, as if through a membrane, water seems to penetrate. It drips through the walls, corroding the dam’s tired concrete, it leaks into the void. There is a suggestion that water might eventually win the gradual erosion, and bring on another round of change, a sudden rush of movement and a new state of being. – Nina Ernst, extract of All yields its place and goes, 2015 Kathleen Herbert lives and works in London.
