Solomon's House

By Duncan Mountford 2017
This installation, exhibited in the National Taiwan University of Arts Museum as part of a group show, used a text from Francis Bacon's New Atlantis as the starting point. Also reflected in the work were a number of other concepts, from the idea of a space station (a research institute) to memories of long corridors down which lay danger (science-fiction television being responsible for this). At the end of the corridor a lens allowed a glimpse of - another world?
