Events Description
Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art is delighted to announce Betonwaves, an upcoming exhibition featuring Louise Witthöft and Rodney LaTourelle.
Betonwaves is a site-specific installation created with recycled concrete and low-carbon cement that is simultaneously sculpture, space and furnishing. The project presents an earth friendly and socially engaged critique of unecological construction systems by presenting ‘material’ itself as a narrative. Formed with locally salvaged concrete aggregate from the ongoing renovations of the Hudson’s Bay Company building nearby, which is now owned by the Southern Chiefs’ Organization, the installation likewise re-interprets this material in a sustainable context as a site for reflection and for talks and discussion about ecologically minded and post-colonial approaches to art production that address both circular, aesthetic and socio-political dimensions.
Louise Witthöft and Rodney LaTourelle are a project-based artist duo known for their large-scale immersive installations that explore the spatial poetics of communal experience. Exhibiting internationally for over twenty years, their interdisciplinary work often engages infrastructure as an expressive tool and is in the collections of The National Gallery of Canada, Remai Modern, and the Art Gallery of Ontario.
