Sacred Place For People to Hear Each other


Theaster Gates, Sanctum, 2015
TEMPLE CHURCH, BRISTOL, UNITED KINGDOM

I think the concept of creating a installation with emphasis on light is intriguing in itself. As a photographer and direction I know how hard it is to work with lights. However these artists manage to create a space, a sacred one at that, in which regular people can go and hear other people perform. The place itself has a lot of characters to begin with, it's woodsy exterior and organic look directly connects it to the outside world of nature. It also seems to not be built with extreme precision principles of architecture and thats what make it stand out.
