In between

The work was about the two most important people in my life at the time, but it could also be read more broadly – we are all “in between” in some way.

The installation consisted of two identical wooden boxes measuring 200 x 120 x 25 cm, placed about 400 cm apart. One contained sand, the other earth.

It was presented during an exhibition at the ZPAP gallery “On the Floor” in Lodz in 2013. During the opening, my daughter (then five years old) was playing with other children in an improvised “sandbox”. On the ground in the second one I placed flowers received during the vernissage.
