‘We are mind and matter at the same time and float like all the other particles through space.’
When it comes to space, being it “real”, imaginary or metaphysical, there is something beyond the beginning and the end, the inside and the outside, the fullness and the emptiness or the darkness and the light. The overlapping of layers of many spaces generates a complex entangled area, usually difficult to define and therefore known as a space in-between.
Lia Karl’s practice is often focused on the observation of those intermediate realms that do not yet know a name. For the exhibition Can´t tell at Mz* Baltazar’s Lab, the artist looks specifically for hidden layers, subtle elements present in gaps between object and space, action and inaction, sound and silence, movement and rest.
