The Bathroom: Exploring Inner Spaces

Exploring intimacy by (re)creating a sensory inner space for reflection

The Bathroom is a space whose layered intimacy results from ambivalent elements by  connecting opposites — bodily and mechanical, clean and impure, warm and cold, comfort and discomfort, solitude and togetherness, peace and restlessness, metamorphosis (and) a return to the old.

The installation opens up a space for a moment of introspection by washing the senses with sounds, evocative smells and facing oneself through immersion in reflection. Personal introspection is intertwined with the universal, through the multitude of images and meanings contained in the collected stories. Thus, the bathroom turns from an empty room into a space of reflection — echoing our internal or shared conversations.

In other words, it becomes what we shape from it — with stories, associations and experiences. You only need to peek behind the curtain.
