Miriam Salamander and Dávid Somló invite the audience into a slowly unfolding environment, where visitors are enveloped by multisensory impressions.
Salamander’s airy paper bodies hover all over the space as visual points of orientation, while Somló’s site-specificsound installation acts as a constantly vibrating medium guiding the visitor through upper floor of the Budapest Gallery. The two elements are linked by air rhythmically pulsating at certain intervals from fans placed at strategic locations. While their works are physically connected by the movement of air in the space, each is also defined individually by air. While Salamander’s paper objects, made of linen- and abaca fibre and
metal wire, take their final form by drying in warm air, Somló’s work is based on airflow and the various sounds associated with it.
The induced breeze challenges the boundaries of both the exhibition and its visitors. The sensitive connection and relation of the works to each other and to space at once involves visitors in a physically tangible relationship within the space and seeks to direct attention to the ever so worrying events outside the exhibition space concerning airflow and temperature
change. Both requiring and offering slow reception, this exhibition also leaves room for the interpretation of correlations on a broader scale. The works offer no concrete answers to global warming; what they do offer is an opportunity for everyone to react more sensitively
to the changes around them by setting up their own individual points of connection.
Miriam Salamander participated in the Artist Exchange
