Isaiah Mansion,
The installation (=to heal oneself) is not just a passive invocation. It invites visitors to ‘heal’, as the title dictates, through their exposure to a multidimensional and complex space. The installation is an introspective landscape, where collections of uncanny objects, toys, pictures, textiles, herbs and animal bones form a cabinet of curiosities. The highlight the primal need of human beings to collect,create and then exhibit, in order to ‘heal’ themselves, mirroring the Ancient Greek God Asclepius’ medicinal quality.
A loft, a nest, the space in our houses where our material fossils are kept, transforms into an eternal healing divided into three stages: Marriage, Genesis, Death.
