A short note on what it means to make an exhibition answer to the place it happens in.
The neighbourhood is not a backdrop. It sets the terms: who walks past, what hours the room is useful, which noises come through the wall at four o'clock. An exhibition that ignores this is not neutral; it is simply somewhere else, pretending.
Working on site means accepting that some of the decisions have already been made for you, and that the interesting work is in noticing which ones.
The site is not a backdrop; it sets the terms.
