A collaborative exhibition by Agata Ingarden and Irina Jasnowski Pascual. The installation divides the space into two rooms. The entryway is a is frame. In the space surrounding it, works expand and escape its primal forms. The augmented heat in the main gallery creates an atmosphere of evaporation and condensation. Caramel melts and drips onto the carpeted floor, clay dissolves in a warm tub, sculptures produce steam, images evaporate and condensate on the saran wrapped windows. Following the theme of changing states of matter, the two artists intervene with the space with transforming forms that distort the time around them.

“A sump is a low space that collects undesirable liquids such as water or chemicals. One common example of a sump is the lowest point in a basement, into which flows water that seeps in from the outside. If this is a regular problem, a sump pump may be used. A sump pump moves said collected undesirable liquids from inside the sump basin to outside the house. A sump is an indoor underground bucket, and its pump an upside down syphon to keep it empty. The sump pump allows a basement dryness, and thus a carpet, a couch, an xbox. The sump pump is noticed only when it fails and the basement floods. The waiting room is the sump pump made flesh. A waiting room basement under 6 inches of water makes the ankles cold, but the heart growth wander.”
