... kept in private. Making it public, 2025

An installation built from elements that hover at the edges of public space: window sill shrines, empty storefronts and the act of waiting to access public infrastructure. Catalog issue 26 was published as part of the work and is used to cover the windows of an empty shopfront in the A. Laikmaa pedestrian tunnel. The publication contains a text on shrines, notes on making a mark, and the script of waiting in _ _ _ _. An audio transducer attached to the window plays a voice recording of this script into the tunnel. Inside, displayed copies of the publication are each annotated with gouache paintings of shrines

Presented at the 9th Artishok Biennial (February–April 2025), curated by Brigit Arop and Margit Säde
