Scratch & peek

2014_bozar_wall2

The glass wall of the corridor that spans the central hall of the Bozar museum in Brussels is temporarily blocked with grey self adhesive plastic. A scratched hole in the plastic allows a view on the lower storey. Is this expression of spatial curiosity intended as a critical intervention addressing problematics of representation of female identity, institutional contexts and the position of the spectator related to the current show ‘Woman’?.
