Come enjoy indoor Danish summer of trickling water and medieval monsters by @sifitona Here’s a bit from the press release:
In recent years, international researchers have carried out a series of controversial laboratory experiments. In the USA, researchers have injected sheep embryos with human cells with the declared goal of growing human organs for transplantation. In China, monkey brains have been enriched with human brain cells – an experiment whose purpose critics question. CRISPR gene editing, which allows for cutting and pasting DNA strings, is but one among other new technologies that open up vast possibilities of manipulation of existing fauna and flora. Itona Westerberg’s installation does not present itself as futurology about new biotechnology or eco-systems. Her work is rather a meditation on the metamorphoses of life from mutations in the primeval soup to the journey from water to land towards gene modification and manipulation of plant and animal species. However, in this exhibition there is no chronological timeline from past to present to future. Remnants from different time periods wildly weave in and out of each other. The exhibition, which takes the form of a fountain, is built around medieval hybrid creatures that spew water out of their mouth. The water is collected in tubs of polyester, which contain fabricated deposits of trilobites extinct 252 million years ago next to scientific visualization models of DNA strings. The water is pumped back via hoses through pipes of aluminum, which has found application within everything from construction work to design since the 20th century. If the exhibition is contemporary art, it is however not solely a picture of our specific moment in time. The title word ‘fountain’ is derived from the Latin word for spring or source. Fountain marks not so much where something comes from but rather wherefrom something continually flows.

Hvad har tidligere været udstillet på KP & SPRING? 'The Gentle Giant' - maleri af Lisbeth Thygesen, 60x40 cm (let beskåret på foto). Vist på KP18.
