About<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In her artistic practice, Carla Zaccagnini engages with questions of perception, power, translation, and language. Over the course of several projects she has returned to the mirror as a medium, to explore its ability to distort the field of vision and challenge our perception of time and space.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Zaccagnini was invited to create a new work for the Wan\u00e5s Biennial Pavilion, she became interested in the structure\u2019s historical function as a vantage point. Here, the estate\u2019s owner could admire their own grounds, including the park and the castle building \u2013 a view that is now partially obscured by the dense rhododendrons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like a Sugar Lump in a Teacup<\/em> reactivates this view. By the pond and inside the pavilion there are the two parts of a text-based work written by the artist. Like a fairy tale, it describes memories of the area around the castle and the pond, and how this landscape has been shaped by its owners. For the pavilion Zaccagnini has also constructed a periscope, whose mirrors manipulate the view and allow an otherwise prominent focal point to vanish into thin air.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Wan\u00e5s Biennial Pavilion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Wan\u00e5s Biennial Pavilion is a new program thread inspired by artist Evan Ifekoya\u2019s project at the site in 2024\u20132025. Every other year, an artist is invited to work in dialogue with the historic pavilion and is encouraged to treat it as a meeting place for pause and reflection.\u202f<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
