Hidden Altars

As part of the exhibition design for Action Office Was Meant to be About Movement, there were four hidden altars which sat behind the curved wall of the main installation, invisible to the viewer. Each of the hidden altars corresponded with four different colors. Artists who also engaged in a spiritual practice were invited to offer an item for one of the four colors that resonated with them most. The altars were not visible during the run of the exhibition, instead their presence was disclosed via a publication that came out the last day of the exhibition. The altars were meant to bring an additional dimension to the piece, as a way to influence and guide viewership and resonance beyond aesthetic, visual form.
