Gereon Krebber:
German-based artist Gereon Krebber's commission at Bloomberg SPACE will show a single, individual construction made out of charred and burnt timber, which will inhabit the front space of the gallery. Standing almost four metres high, it will be possible for onlookers to see through and walk through the cleverly connected pieces, which will seem more like a forest of posts than a hut.
Sharing some of the preoccupation we have with the future, the piece will resemble the transitional sense of a building site, where all is in a state of flux. The structure will be more of a dystopian playground, where something still tied to the actuality of material has been delayed and somehow caught at a stage before fruition. In ruins already, but with no history narration or narrator, Krebber's piece will connote the sense that something, perhaps a confrontation, has already taken place, that we have arrived at a place where something has already happened.
